What's a statistically proven fact that nobody wants to hear?

Yes, i have already provided a study roving that genetics is a factor, however it is not a big factor and t in no way justifies the massive amount of obesity that we have gotten in later years.

Yeah, people relapse. Because staying in shape is hard work. It is work that you have to do every day, often being encouraged to fail by others around you who offer you sweets, junk food etc.

The same reason a lot of junkies relapse. It's not because they are "Genetically predispositioned" to snort heroin, it's just their addiction. People who are fat are addicted to food, and unlike junkies they can't just stop exposing themselves to it permanently.

People who have a easier time getting addicted to alcohol do so because of imbalances with their endorphins, not because their brain feels the need to "drink more" like you claimed about food.

Just face the facts, dude. Literally everything points against you. Yes, genetics can affect your metabolism. Yes, genetics can make it easier to get addicted. No, genetics does not explain why 35% of americans suddenly became fat as fuck over a few decades.

Talking about the genetics when 200 000 000 people are overweight/obese is just plain up retarded and all it proves is that you have absolutely no proper education in biology whatsoever.

Tell me, when someone gets a cough do you immediately assume that they have lung cancer? No? Then don't assume that people are fat because of genetics. They are not. They are fat because they overeat, so stop trying to find excuses.
