All things in moderation. Stop eating like a pig and problem goes away. One can’t consume more calories than one expends. It isn’t complicated but that ugly aspect of self-discipline rears its ugly head and when ignored demands its retribution.

You are only partially correct. Sugar consumption, in some people, triggers an excess of insulin that causes the body to store the carbohydrates as fat instead of sending it to the muscles to be used for activity. This surge of too much insulin creates a physiological drive to eat. If the person cuts out sugars, white flour and other starches from the diet and limits his or her carbohydrate intake a day to under 60 grams or less, it’s possible not to overeat.
It’s not a matter of “self-discipline”, it’s a physiological process caused by a reaction to too much carbohydrate in the diet.
