most people are/were overweight in the first place because they ate/took too much.

it's just human nature to want as much as we can get, so when most people find out something is healthy or low-fat/fat free, they feel as though they can securely eat as much as they can (not as much as they need, but as much as they can get), without gaining weight or getting sick. they feel like "it's healthy, so it's like a free food". there's greed and gluttony in almost all of us.

maybe if you just explained nicely to your dad that eating seven muffins is still not good for him, he'll stop. and if he doesn't, just tell him to keep his hands off your weight watchers ice cream :P
