A lot of overeating is psychogenic, and a form of "eating disorder", or adjacent to it. Any effective means of losing weight for most severely obese people needs to address that side (sometimes it's "just" an entrenched habit of a lifetime, but often it's genuine and severe "eating as stress coping") to achieve more than medical health benefits.

Note: I'm not talking about people "overweight" by a few kg or even maybe "mildly obese".
