Surgery and drugs definitely feel like a Plan C or D. There are subconscious and cultural aspects to food that those don't address. For one thing, in a lot of cases, the worst food to eat is also the cheapest to buy and the easiest to prepare and the most profitable to market. I think most people who are overweight or out of shape know it and also know how to start to fix it. But habits and carbs and sugars are a hell of a combo, and it almost requires an "event" (something beyond a simple "diagnosis") to get people motivated. And that doesn't even work universally.
