I usually eat oatmeal for breakfast. Lunch varies but it often eggs with bagel/toast/baguette or a sandwich. Dinner is usually some kind of meat, potatoes and green veggie. I mostly drink water but do have a latte most days and alcohol on weekends. I eat some sort of dessert every day and probably twice a week have a takeout meal. I don’t snack a ton but eat bites of my kids food, and exercise regularly.

Morning snack: chocolate, usually. sometimes trail mix or just nuts, or more fruit.
Lunch: Burrito bowl, salad, tacos, pizza, or often leftovers from previous night. Sometimes a turkey sandwich. A cheese quesadilla if I'm feeling really lazy and there's nothing else.
Afternoon snack: popcorn or potato chips
Dinner: casseroles, burgers, tacos, ramen (like good ramen from a take out place or that we make at home properly, not the little packets that college kids eat), and lots of pasta
Dessert: always! I love to bake -- cheesecake bars, snack cakes, cookies, etc. If I don't have a baked good around, more chocolate.
I also usually drink at least one Coke a day, sometimes two. Plus water the rest of the time. I almost never drink alcohol, maybe once a week if that. Also no coffee.

Very true, and the reason why most of out country is overweight or obese. That is depressing too
There is very little evidence that overeating causes obesity. People are definitely bigger and obesity more common now than in the past, but the science indicates that it has more to do with the quality of our food and access to healthcare, especially preventative healthcare. There's also compelling evidence that obesity is linked to stress and childhood trauma. Google "ACES score and obesity."
It is a myth that obesity is the result of individual choice, and it's a myth that it's preventable with individual discipline.

You mean stop asking people who don't know how to diet or calorie restrict. All humans know how to eat. You put food in your mouth. It is actually an extremely straightforward process.
