      calorie intake isn’t even about eating healthier, you can totally eat hamburgers, just not 20 of them in a week

      sadly we evolved to gobble up as many calories as we can to get through rough times where there isn’t much food. Unfortunately we developed into a society where there is always food, and evolution hasn’t caught up. The primal desire to eat can be overwhelmingly strong, it’s different from person to person. I don’t stock up on snacks because of exactly this reason, but it still takes a lot of effort to not constantly overeat. Eating is just so good! Obesity is not necessarily a discipline issue, our biology is working against us
