It's not evolution. If you raised the same people, genetically, in a different environment they wouldn't be obese.
Predilictions - including behavioural ones - are evolutionary. It's just that "fat and lazy" has been allowed to express itself better, with less fear of being cast out, physically or sexually, than ever before since the advent of the car.
I can't tell if you're arguing that behaviors evolve or that the obesity has made it to our genes
That behaviours evolve.
