Hmm, many overweight people I know don't treat it like the disease it is. Some even got diabetes, but don't want to give up their eating habits. They just don't want to.

That's as close to a moral failure as you can get in my opinion. It just might be medical in the same sense that drug addicts might not be able to control their compulsions, but otherwise no, it is all on them.
