What are you talking about? If you eat a diet that has the required number of calories and nutrients designed for a healthy-weight person, your body weight will drop accordingly.

The factors that lead someone to overeat is a totally different question the answer to which should be figured out by themselves or maybe their psychologist. In most cases it's not that dire though, once their initial withdrawal from fast food stops people stop having these impulses to reach for a doughnut each time they're inconvenienced. In any case, your problems in life should be treated by dealing with the problems directly and not making themselves feel better by stuffing their face.

Thanks for explaining thermodynamics to me, I guess?

Statistically, most people who try to eat less fail to do it. Why do you think you don't you have the impulse to reach for a donut each time you're inconvenienced?

I guess it's more comfortable to just call them lazy, but it's utterly useless and un-actionable at a societal and personal level. Diets have to be all about managing the sensation of hunger while maintaining such a caloric deficit. CICO amounts to "Just eat less lol"

Yep, because the secret is simple, not easy. Whereas people want to find some high-tech wunderwaffen arcane diet that will be hyper complex but easy to follow and will lead to effortless results.

There was this documentary on yt[0] where a fitness model gained lots of weight on purpose to lose it, and even he had mood swings and initially had problems with following his diet regimen when it was time to lose the weight. But point still stands, if you stick with the diet your weight will drop.
