I understand the concern, but consider this analogy: are we "creating a generation dependent on" blood pressure medication? Cholesterol medication? Thyroid medication?
Obesity is a chronic disease with biological drivers. Treating it with medication is no different from treating any other chronic condition. The "dependency" framing implies weakness or moral failure — neither of which is accurate.
If ongoing medication is what keeps someone healthy, that's successful treatment, not dependency.

Correct, and worth adding that it is reversible. Nothing being described here is a one-way door, which changes how cautious it is reasonable to be.
Ask again with the specifics and you will get a better answer than this one.

Genuinely useful, thank you. I had the facts and not the framework. I will report back once I have actually tried it.

Correct me if the detail matters more than I have assumed.

Mine went the same way, slower.
