Source and full article: Why Is Losing Weight So Tough?Weight loss is much more complicated than working out and not eating dessert, science suggests.
Even so, we're making some progress battling this epidemic. Studies show obesity appears to be plateauing in Caucasians, though not in ethnic minorities. But the numbers are already so high, "plateauing" seems more euphemistic than hopeful. Scientific research has shown that the fixes are not about dieting, however. The solutions are complex and will take time and resources. Patients need more support than they are receiving. Clearly, our country needs a greater systematic effort in the realms of public health, the government and industry. For starters, our political leaders should make combating obesity a top priority. Our nation faces many challenges, and the obesity epidemic has fallen to the bottom of a long list of health care problems. Schools could play a role. Students should receive additional education in schools on good eating habits and how to control stress. As someone who sees this devastating illness every day, I believe that health care insurers need to be more willing to pay upfront to manage obesity before it becomes a much more expensive disease to treat. Given the structure of health insurance now, physicians simply cannot spend the time needed with patients to properly communicate and educate. Studies have shown that many insurers exclude treatments for obesity. Each of us needs to become an advocate for a healthier way of life. Adults can start by teaching our youngsters about good dietary habits, by insisting on a better balance in the workplace, and by demanding more accountability from the food and health industries, and our government. Doing that will help ensure a brighter and healthier future for our children.

Honestly yes, back then, like 30 years , obesity was not high, and even my grandfather retained his good facial features, without any double chins and jaws were intact.
Though, he was a chain smokers.
I have always felt that by curbing smoking, obesity has risen across the world.

Being overweight is hard because it's taxing to your body. It causes metabolic diseases, such as diabetes and hardening of arteries.
And if you are already overweight, it is hard to lose that weight.
So, choose which hard you want. If you choose the hard to lose the weight, you will live an easier life.
