2,2 In what ways have I obsessed with diets and/or weight loss schemes?

I haven't been a diet freak - I have tried diets in the past and had reasonable success but I wouldn't say that I was obsessed. Of course the diets didn't stick - once I lost my focus my eating would go out of control again and I would put the weight back on. Although some of these programs worked on portion control and even behavior changes, most of the focus was on the physical aspects of weight, a little about the emotional aspects and nothing about the spiritual aspects. There was nothing about getting help from other sources - the focus was on how your life would improve once your body image was changed.

I have never tried to use drugs to control my appetite - that was always seemed like a no win situation. You might stop eating but what the hell was it doing to your body? And once you were done with the pills, what would happen? Appetite returns, weight gained - only thing that is smaller is your wallet (and your self-esteem.)
