Obesity is as much a psychological as a physical drawback. Society is very negative about obesity, and overweight people tend to believe that they are "weak" and "unmotivated." They recognize social and work-related discrimination, which usually results in low superficial levels and discomfort to the body. Obese people are usually aware of these negative attitudes and initialize them, putting them at risk of mood disorders, anxiety, and abuse. Obese people usually try several times to lose weight, but with little or no success. Your unsuccessful attempts have led to discouragement, frustration and despair, and you have learned a sense of helplessness towards the possibility of losing weight on your own in the future.
