Fear appeal, guilt mongering, and fat shaming do not work.

I was excessively overweight and did not admit it. I acknowledged that I was a little fat. I claimed that I was fat-but-fit. I could exercise.
Then, I admitted that I was fat-and-unfit.

Still, I denied reality, even after a heart attack. I did not count calories, weigh myself, understand muscle loss, or appreciate exercise, hydration, sleep, breathing, relationships, and worthy physical and mental activity. 
I lived in denial; I was dying in denial. 

I had a series of insights. I wrestled the daddy demon I call Denial. 
I am no longer denying denial. I found my healthy, aspirational self.
