Seed oils did not make you healthier. They made you inflamed, hungry, dependent, and medicated. The low-fat lie did not save lives. It created customers. And now the same industry wants you on injectable drugs for life instead of teaching you how to eat real food.

For decades, the food industry sold the same scam with different packaging. Fat is bad. Calories are king. Oils are “heart healthy.” Sugar is fine in moderation. Processed food is convenient. Trust the label. Trust the experts. Trust the science funded by the companies selling you the product.

That lie worked. People stopped eating real food. They replaced it with seed oils, ultra-processed garbage, and low-fat products engineered to hijack appetite. Obesity exploded. Diabetes exploded. Autoimmune issues exploded. And instead of admitting the mistake, the solution became prescription drugs.

I am Jonathan Ressler . I lost 140 pounds without dieting, without drugs, and without outsourcing my health to a syringe. Before I changed how I ate, I was on eight medications. Today I am on none. Not because I got lucky. Because I stopped eating fake food and started choosing real food.

The Low-Fat Lie Created the Perfect Storm

When fat was demonized, food had to taste good somehow. The solution was seed oils, refined carbohydrates, and chemical flavoring. Cheap ingredients. Long shelf life. Maximum profit. Minimum nutrition.

Seed oils are not neutral. They are highly processed, inflammatory, and unstable. They disrupt hunger signals. They increase cravings. They keep you eating past fullness. And then you are blamed for having no willpower.

You were not weak. You were manipulated.

Why GLP-1 Drugs Are the Next Version of the Same Scam

Ozempic and GLP-1 drugs are not teaching people how to eat. They are suppressing appetite while the underlying problem stays untouched. No skill. No awareness. No structure. Just chemical appetite control.

When the drug stops, hunger comes back. Cravings come back. Weight comes back. And now you are heavier, metabolically worse, and mentally dependent on a prescription you were told was a solution.

That is not health. That is dependency.

The food industry broke your hunger. Pharma offered to mute it. Neither fixed it.

Real Food Does Not Require a Prescription

You can get everything your body needs from real food. Protein. Fat. Fiber. Micronutrients. Satiety. Stability. Real meals eaten intentionally fix what drugs try to silence.

When you stop eating seed oils and ultra-processed food, hunger becomes predictable again. Cravings drop. Energy stabilizes. Eating becomes boring in the best possible way. That is how weight comes off and stays off.

This is the foundation of Stop Dieting. Start Choosing. You stop chasing fixes and start building control.

Why People Would Rather Inject Than Learn

Learning how to eat requires responsibility. It requires attention. It requires unlearning decades of bad advice. Drugs feel easier. They feel faster. They feel hands-off.

But easy never built independence. Easy never taught skill. Easy always comes with a bill. Financially. Physically. Mentally.

When you learn how to eat real food, nobody owns you. Not food companies. Not drug companies. Not influencers selling fixes.

What Actually Works

Eat real food. Stop fearing fat. Eliminate seed oils. Sit down to eat. Build repeatable meals. Make decisions before hunger hits. Stop outsourcing control.

That is how I lost 140 pounds. That is how I got off eight medications. That is how people regain trust in their bodies.

If you want reinforcement, the Shut Up and Choose podcast goes deeper every week.

Drugs mute the signal. Real food fixes it. Your body already knows what to do. Stop poisoning it and stop numbing it. Make the next choice real.

Shut up and choose.
