Not exactly: Obesity is caused by many things including lifestyle, drugs, genetic, environment...Anyone who was obesed can get obesed again if they don't follow good maintenance therapy. As such, there is no cure of obesity, but you can control it.

Obese not a verb: Sorry, but i believe another way of thinking about weight issues is the 70/30 theory. I believe we are only under control of about 30% of our eating decisions.Just as i believe that asthma and hyspertension are treatable by by 30% lifestyle changes. We do not expect patients to do without appropriate "medications" to treat their hypertension;and when they stop their meds we label them noncompliant.

Absolutely >Strategy: All living creatures are open systems: i.e. all atoms we are made of keep changing, some rapid/some slow. Thus if we eat & store less than loose daily, wt. will go down. Calories: zero wt.; thus counting largely pointless. Track Wt. daily to 0.1 lb., after up&toilet, & review what eaten previous day to learn what works. Carbs/sugar most prone to store as fat. Fats (of natural origin) least stored!

Cure of obesity.: The cure for obesity is to lose weight. Granted that's easier said than done, but that's the cure for the individual. A societal cure would be harder to come by.
