First off I have to say, If you consume too much of ANY kind of sugar you can become obese. I'm not sure why the sugar in alcohol makes more of a difference.
Yeast and sugar naturally ferments into alcohol.
Yeast on fruit or sugar
sugar dissolved in water would be the best form to make alcohol.
Alcohol is made when yeast converts sugar to alcohol and carbon dioxide.
When yeast is added to a sugar solution, the yeast ferments the sugar to produce carbon dioxide gas and alcohol. This process is used in baking to make bread rise and in brewing to make alcohol.

By converting sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide.
Yeast sugar and water
They eat the sugar, and produce alcohol and CO2.
If there is enough liquid, the sugar will dissolve, as rubbing alcohol is a mixture of water (about 30%) with an alcohol. Sugar is soluble in both liquids. * BTW, rubbing alcohol is poisonous. *
Well, if you're obese, it's real common to also be diabetic. And if you're diabetic you should be real careful about eating sugar. Sugar is also very high in calories, energy. And the main reason for becoming obese is eating more calories than needed. So unless the obese person wants to become even more obese, they should avoid foods that are high in calories, basically everything that sweet and fatty.
No, sugar alcohol does not contain any ethanol or traditional alcohol. It is a type of sweetener that is often used as a sugar substitute in food and beverages.
