Throughout my life there was a lot of shame and guilt about this. That’s long gone.
The shame and blame is because being obese was considered a character flaw, not because of anything else.

Case and point:
Left almond butter jar outside after going shopping one day and forgetting to bring it in. The squirrel literally chewed through the plastic to get to the almond butter. I wonder if he felt shame?

My neighbor has a dog, when we put food in front of the dog he eats, two hours later when we put food in front of him again he eats, and two hours later again he eats. Should the dog feel shame?

The bottom line is our food is designed to make us eat more and any animal exposed to our food gets obese and sick.

Start with low carb, go as low as you can then add intermittent fasting.
If you are more hungry eat more low carb
