I mean…yes?

I get that this is supposed to be a joke, but, I don’t get the joke. This is literally how weight loss works.

Eat less.

Eat healthier.

Exercise.

Weight loss is hard because it’s hard to stick to it. But the concepts aren’t complicated. Caleries in minus caleries burned equals caleries stored as fat.

Less caleries means less unburned caleries means less fat.

Just don’t have an eating disorder / addiction is what these posts suggest you know. The entire problem is they struggle with saying no. Like a heroin addict.

It’s not fat people hate to acknowledge that eating less is how you lose weight.

Your take or stance about capitalism and addiction is true also, but yeah addicts are addicts if it’s heroin or food or sex or alcohol.

Some addictions / pleasures aren’t super unhealthy and some are.

Either way, the trick to it is to eat less. Same as the “trick” to getting off opiates is to stop using them.

Yeah all that’s right but you’re overlooking the fact that “just stop” almost never works. People can know this, rationally. But they still fall into addiction. It takes a more complicated approach than “just stop” most of the time.
