> and its easy. dont eat too much.

No, it's not easy. It's extremely hard for most people, that is the whole point of the article.

> we didnt evolve to where we are by eating three square meals a day. we ate little and often starved in between while hunting and foraging.

Yes, and that is exactly the reason why we evolved to eat as much as we can when there is lots of food available, so we'll survive the starvation when there isn't.

Our evolutionary programming compels us (via hormones) to be obese.
