Excellent points
> why would I care what others think about
Because you're a social creature and evolution cursed us with self awareness. There are things not worth concerning yourself over, but this is like telling someone to just not be depressed: it doesn't work (generically) like that.
Also, if I may, why must I pick up the medical bill (in any form) because someone can't choose to not eat a double big Mac with extra fries, regardless of the sugar free drink?
I don't think it's as easy as "shame these people until they fall in line" (I did have this view) because there are other, surprising factors involved (poverty being the one that surprised me the most).
But we can, and should, extoll the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. One of them is a greater self satisfaction [0]
