Art Wegner weight loss struggles

[Momo]

In an article in the New York Times about new drugs that treat obesity, Art Wegner is cited as an example of one who is resisting such medication:

“Art Regner … [a] garrulous color commentator for the Detroit Red Wings hockey team … said he was not ready to resort to medication. But when he went to Dr. [Amy] Rothberg’s [Ann Arbor weight loss] clinic he was chagrined. He’d regained 22 of the 76 pounds he lost by dieting.

Dr. Rothberg … suggested Wegovy or Mounjaro. But Mr. Regner felt he should have enough willpower to do it on his own. He knows his blood sugar is high and is aware of the consequences of diabetes.

Dr. Rothberg gently explained to him that it was not his fault he kept regaining weight every time he lost some.

Mr. Regner was not swayed. “I believe in myself,” he said. “I wake up in the morning and look in the mirror and say, ‘Are you going to do it or aren’t you?’”

I find Art Regner incredibly annoying. That is all.

I'm surprised Regner was able to remove his mouth from Ken Holland's "junk" long enough to provide a comment for the story.
