Yes, I don’t doubt other things have some impact. Some foods do lead to weight gain more than others (hence my argument that one should eat more veggies and less carb and fat trash). Calories in Vs. Calories out is the domianant factor. If you eat 5,000 calories of healthy food while living a sedentary life, you will almost certainly become obese. If you eat 1,000 calories of trash you will almost certainly lose weight, but will probably suffer other consequences of an unhealthy diet. If one is obese and desires not to be obese, then one should eat less. I’m amazed anyone wants to object to that.

"Currently, Lidl is one of four full-service grocery stores in wards 7 and 8. According to Mayor Bowser's office, in January, there were 76 full-service grocery stores west of the Anacostia River.
That means there is roughly one grocery store for every 39,000 people in wards 7 and 8, while there is one grocery store for every 7,000 people in the rest of the District, according to 2020 US Census numbers."
