There are no paradoxes, only broken models which you are applying to the world.
I don’t know when this phenomena started, but I’m sure it will continue with human thinking drawing conclusions from incomplete ideas. As I move through the world, and am told things by NGOs, nutritional non-profits and the government myself I find myself repeatedly going “hmmmm, that doesn’t make sense because of X”.

To recap:
When you move away from Obesity as the issue and see it as a result/lagging indicator, you can start to see where people are and what they struggle with before they develop Obesity. The best identifier I have for this is currently these "red pill" questions I have been using for people:
Five years ago, as my 2nd company was crumbling around me I decided to launch a short lived podcast.
Episode 1 was my now wife interviewing me. I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT THIS Just stumbled across the video and omg it is incredible. I think every engaged couple should make a podcast episode before they get married.
It's peak human hubris to believe an individuals willpower can succeed over their hormones.
As mentioned in a personal update I was working on something new new. The working title is uncivilized.
Here's the background - I had some weird symptoms I was chasing down earlier this year. Several sets of bloodwork, and doctors visits left me totally disenfranchised with the medical system and doctors to solve actual underlying issues. When you look around and try and ask questions in the space, almost every answer seems sensible but with the slightest amount of digging you see it is nonsense.
What is more concerning is seeing medical professionals with a very limited view of the world try and prescribe protocols or even medications to solve an obesity issue, when it is very clear, none of us really understand it. Having spoken to 100s of patients and read 100s of books in the space, using range, here the beginning of my theories and work on obesity. Every year, around March my exercise regimen gets a serious boost of structure and focus as I start to plan out my run for The Triple Bypass, a Colorado based bike race.
Starting at 8000 feet of elevation the course runs over 3 mountain passes ending in Avon resulting in 10,000 feet of climb and 120 miles of cycling. It is freaking tough, but so so so worth it. When it comes to family dynamics, there really are none that are “normal” or “average” families, but in this post I want to discuss a mental model I have built through the years when discussing my family & friends, listening to others discuss the upside or challenges with their families and from simply witnessing how other families interact.
