I'm obese. Most people my age at my work are not obese. I managed to get back to normal weight pre-pandemic by IF (16:8) and ~1hr a day of walking.

Various things have lead to me eating/drinking (alcohol) to excess and becoming more overweight than ever.

My long-winded point is that it seems specifically to be my personal actions that have caused my obesity -- poor food choices and lack of exercise. Others from the same background, others at the same workplace, etc., are not obese.

I would hate anyone to start telling me being fat is OK and that I shouldn't bother to do anything about it.
