Actually it really is! I was prescribed contrave because I took fatpeoplehate's advice. I couldn't stop eating, I was addicted, so I went to my doctor and said as much. I explained to him why I was eating and why I felt like I couldn't stop. That I knew CICO works, but I can't stop binging. I've been taking it for a year and I'm down to a healthy bmi, but not a healthy bf %. And it works by suppressing the cravings, as well as keeping steady serotonin levels in the brain so you don't use food to create a rush of serotonin to feel good. I've tried to go off it, but I've come to accept that I've permanently damaged my relationship with food and that it helps me to eat like a normal person. So yes, ultimately fat people that make excuses about eating disorders and emotionally eating are still just making excuses. There is help out there if they want it
