It's interesting that overall spending doesn't decrease that much in the end, although shifting from snacks to fruit is the kind of change health advocates have always wanted?

Only after discontinuation. GLP-1s should be considered chronic medication for most people.

My brother was on it for a bit (and should go on it again) and the thing he noted was that it makes it easy to not eat but it gives you no useful habits to keep that up because it's so easy.

Which makes sense. I still calorie count everything generally because I know I'll let myself creep portion sizes unchecked.

I don't think it's natural (in the sense of defining health) for adequate homeostasis to require special rituals and constant attention.
