This is a good point, and it goes the other way as well. As many of us here - myself included - have experienced, eating LC really helps bring your appetite under control, to the point where you end up eating fewer calories anyway. It's really just about getting the focus right.

Also agree. There could be issues of food availability in some areas, people may have specific allergies or intolerances, religious or cultural limitations and so on. LC doesn't have to be the solution for all, but it certainly appears as a leading option for those who really need it. In fact, its scalability is one of the things I like the most about this WOE: the bigger the change needed, the bigger the difference it can make.

It's so great that people are making it to parliament with discussions like this. I'd totally be up for it myself someday.
