a serious and engaging movie about food addiction

I saw this movie years ago, and it really left an impression on me, but when recently reflecting on some serious food addiction issues, I had a hard time finding it, because I couldn't remember the title, it does not show up in keyword searches or even synonyms, and it was apparently not widely seen, so it does not even show up in the usual lists of best movies about food addiction issues.

It seems like an authentic attempt to look at serious life-threatening consequences of failure to address food and health issues, and the consequences for those around us. The main character really has a battle on his hands. Some here have assigned comedy as one of the labels, but I remember it being more just a straightforward drama.
