Brookhaven hospital is a hospital for the very obese in Manhattan where the very obese try to recover and rehabilitate their gargantuan eating addictions. These people weigh 350 to 800 pounds. The show explains most of it as eating addiction. It is a TV show.
And your second point, people being lazy, not exercising, that's why I don't have that much sympathy for them. Those people who sue Micky D's for getting their daughters overweight? Ridiculous.
Right now, I'm not in college, summer break. But everything I've learned for the most part is the fault of the obese person. Other than the small percentage who claim genetics.
