2) Some have tried and given up.

3) Some prefer to avoid the difficulty of changing their eating habits.

4) Some perhaps just don't care.

Sometime it's the case of not actually being able to lose weight. If someone is too big for their size to actually do exercise (they are incapable of moving therefore incapable of losing weight. also, sometimes they can't go under surgery because there might be some difficulties and if someone is incapable of moving and can't get surgery because of the chances of them dying then the likely hood is there is no way of them losing weight other than eating healthier/ less. Wow, I've rambled on lol. I hope I've helped, take care (:

How do you lose weight for obese people?

The brain insists on maintaining the status quo. If a person is obese, for whatever reason that may be, and he tries to diet, as all obese people do and many manage to lose some weight , maybe even a lot of weight, and keep it off for varying periods of time. All those who are overweight or obese are experts on what we should eat, so, why do we eventually put the weight back on, and always a bit more? Any loss of weight is seen by the body as starvation and starts to do many things to get the weight back to the status quo, and the brain works harder and harder to achieve this balance. Not only does it want the balance to be returned, it insists on a bit more weight be added in case of future starvation. Our brain is trying to protect us, and when we lived in caves, it did just that. I am not a medical person, but I am a strong willed person who has become obese and I am unable to maintain weight loss for long. I welcome all replies to my opinion

What might cause people to lose weight?

The two main reasons for losing weight are cosmetic purposes and health purposes.CosmeticIn our society, beauty is romanticized. As such, people feel that they need to meet the standards of the models and actors they see on TV. This really isn't possible due to all of the makeup and photoshop those actors/models get. However, it is a very powerful instigator for people to lose weight.Healthfulness.Statistically, being obese will kill you more than anything else will.
