Why can’t we ingest or inject some Pac-Man type thing that runs around eating our fat cells?

If you developed a pill that targeted fat cells and broke them down or otherwise transported them to be pooped out, you would be a billionaire almost overnight. Losing weight is difficult, but it’s not hard. You just have to eat fewer calories than you burn. The problem is, people don’t have the discipline to eat less and work out consistently enough to see improvement. A caloric deficit of 500/day will cause you to lose 1lb per week, if someone ones to lose 50lbs, they would have to do things consistently for a year, or still 6 months if they had a daily deficit of 1000 calories. It’s a long time to stick to something if it’s difficult and you don’t think it’s working.
