Last time I checked the obesity rate in the US was like 36%. Now it's 42%. Some sources say 40%. That's just the obesity rate too, if you include overweight it's over 70%. What the hell is wrong with people? Why is this not being addressed, instead of the whole world's panicking over a stupid virus? This should be top priority for any politician who wants to prevent people from dying prematurely. Sugar taxes and food laws are just as controversial as lockdowns and mask mandates, if government gets a say in everyone's health I want this dealt with. It's a drain on society and government insurance shouldn't allow them to live past what they should or help them reproduce. That's a waste of hospital resources we're supposedly so short on. I mean if you're dumb enough to eat yourself to death I don't really care if you win a Darwin award, that's on you. But I don't want to live in a society full of fat people either, it's obnoxious and depressing. I knew obesity rates weren't likely to improve but I'm so mad to see how much it went up. I want friends who aren't fats, drug addicts or smokers. I know this isn't addicthate but they're as bad as fats and half the thin people I talk to end up being addicts. I won't allow those idiots near my family either. My pool of potential friends is shrinking more and more every year, faster than I realized. I don't want to be around fat, degenerate morons at all but it's starting to be impossible to avoid them. I don't want to be a hermit either, I can't win here. This sucks. :/

that is where people fail, its super easy to lose weight with IF or keto, keto is even more efficient because your body uses more energy(about 200-300 a day so over a lb every 12 days) but the way you are suggesting is just not going to work for most people, yes it is a will power issue but have a look at a how blood sugar effects will power https://www.humnutrition.com/blog/how-blood-sugar-affects-food-cravings/ im not just talking out of my arse here, there is a scientific knowledge relating to dieting that is poorly understood by your average person and generally not in any way involved in most common diet plans because the people making them want them to stay dieting and them braking down and snacking just means they failed, not the diet program

think of it like the way you lift vs crossfit, one of you is going to have a much easier time building muscle, just reducing your caloric intake when you are super fat is the crossfit of dieting, its ignoring all of the small effects that you can use to speed up your progress(speaking off, your last set should be to failure and then to failure again with your spotter, a lot of people fail to do this and wonder why they stop making progress and its why lifting and calisthenics are on equal footing to lifting, its not how much you lift is how much you damage your muscles)
