It’s as simple as eating less calories than you need

Agreed. It’s simple. But simple is not necessarily easy. There’s a difference.

but they can’t manage it because they’ve trained their bodies to expect them to be constantly cramming garbage down their gullet

Sounds a hell of a lot like an addiction to me.

[…] lazy and or stupid and don’t want to make the effort […] cramming garbage down their gullet […] they have no willpower

Your entire response is filled with vitriol. You attribute a serious problem that has become a pandemic to an individual personal fault rather than acknowledge there might be a systemic problem, which leads me to believe that not only do you hate or despise overweight people, but you put them down to make yourself feel superior.

It is almost always an individual fault. Just happens to be a fuckload of individuals who are faulty. Then they go online and make excuses for each other instead of trying to improve themselves. Why shouldn’t I despise them? If they lack the willpower to control their eating because it’s difficult what other failings are they going to be willing to forgive themselves for?

Yeah, nobody forces them to go to McDonald’s every day after work.
