>How nutrition lost out to physical activity This is spot on. The thing is that to lose weight one just needs to eat less. That's it. Although, for an average person it's very hard to eat less while keeping consuming lots of sugary foods because sugar makes you hungry. But once you remove added sugar from your diet eating less stops being a problem. The problem is that the corporate world doesn't want you to eat less, because they can't make money off you if you just eat less. They want you to keep buying sugary stuff and exercise, because when you're trying to fight obesity with exercise you need to buy running shoes, sportswear, gym bag, fitness tracker, apps for fitness tracker, gym membership, bicycle, and so on. It's a huge huge business. That's why you keep seeing ads for all those kinds of things (and sugary foods too). You will never see an ad that would tell you "just eat less" because no corporation would ever pay for it.
