I completely agree.
What's sad is people will torture themselves if they're overweight by working out, and then reward themselves with food afterwards.
The worst advice we gave people is telling them they shouldn't skip meals if they're trying to lose weight. Americans/Westerners really don't care about finding solutions; only looking like they do.
The vast majority of obese people are not willing to admit they caused their obesity, because it's a human trait not to admit your faults.
Humans would much rather paint themselves as the victim because that's mentally much easier. "I'm obese because of PCOS/thyroid/magic/metabolism" or "obesity isn't unhealthy, everyone should be like me". The alternative is "I caused this, I'm maintaining this, and thus I can stop maintaining this".
Once I made the realisation that I was working hard to be obese every day, it was super fucking easy to lose weight. But to find the solution, you need to identify the problem first, and if that problem is you, it's going to be an uncomfortable problem.
