Even if you only have access to garbage food you can still limit your caloric intake. I eat fast food every day I work and I’m a healthy weight. It’s not difficult at all.
All you have to do is know how many calories you need in a day (this is easily available online)and keep track of how many you’re eating (again nutritional info is easily available online). If you want to get really fancy with it you can look at protein/carbs/fat specifically.
Everything else comes down to self control and making excuses. If you have problems with snacking don’t keep snacks in the house or at least serve them in a reasonable portion instead of sitting with the bag and shoveling them down your gullet for an hour before you realize what you’ve done to yourself. If you only have fast food options buy al a carte items instead of the XXL Big Mac combo with a 1/2 gallon of coke. A bit of self awareness when you are choosing what you consume is all it takes.
Maybe it’s a bit of both though. People still have free will. You can eat unhealthy shit and not become morbidly obese.
Free will is a lie we tell ourselves.
Is someone force-feeding you?
Is that really the only scenario you can think of that limits your food choices?

“It’s easy for me, therefore it’s easy for anybody.”
It’s simple math if you can’t do that idk what to tell you.
It’s not simple math. It’s biology, sociology, psychology, medicine, etc.
