@ProfD is correct. The individual has chosen - that is free will....but lacks the Discipline Commitment or Ability to follow through. This lack of Discipline/Commitment will result in a yielding to the path of least resistance which is usually previous habits formed...Which is still an expression of their Free Will. Habits are informed and influenced by previous experiences and thoughts that now are the default setting Habits are like a body in motion - force of habit....To change the trajectory or speed another force/body must act upon it - Form new good habits that are desirable.

The difficulty lies in the fact that the person doesn't want to lose weight badly enough. 😉 Let a doctor tell that same person that losing weight is a matter of life or death. Watch how much free will and will power they manage to muster.🤣 The downside to weight loss alternatives (surgeries and medication) is that because it doesn't require much in the way of will power, many of those same folks end up gaining weight again. 😁 Same goes for lottery winners. Many of them end up broke because their free will and will power is broken.😎
