You would really let your child eat themselves into obesity because that is “their own truth” ? Losing weight is REALLY REALLY hard and vast majority of people that become obese will stay that way. The only effective way to combat obesity is to never become obese in the first place. If that means telling your child only one dessert or no more snacks, then that is what you need to do

Go away. That is not what people want to hear. Are you done deaf? See what the vast majority of posts here are about.

There is no data supporting the claim that control over the final size of one's body can be achieved in a healthy way (vs. other good goals that would arise from a healthy diet and exercise, letting weight be whatever it is when one does those things).

Exactly, everyone agrees: healthy diet (no triples and quintuples on dessert) and exercise.

Then you will be your natural weight.

Overeating via too large of portions and tons of sweets will not result in being overweight, for most people.
