Here is a 3 meal/day McDiet with a beverage at every meal.

Breakfast: Egg McMuffin (300 cals), Hash Browns (150 cals) and Coffee (0 cals).

Lunch: McChicken (360 cals), Fries (380 cals) and Coca Cola (210).

Dinner: Big Mac (540), Premium Southwest Salad with Chicken (320 cals), and Coca Cola (210).

2470 cals/day.

To become obese, you need to add this:

Afternoon Tea: Sweet Tea (150 cals) and McRib Sandwich (500 cals).

Desert: Hot Fudge Sundae (330 cals).

Now you are up to 3450 cals/day.

There is nothing about being poor which compels you to spend money on the McRib Sandwich, sweet tea and the Hot Fudge Sundae.

Of course you can stop eating, but a poor person is more likely to get the 50 nuggets for $10, instead. Twice, for a total of 4750 calories, minus the ones they don't get to in each meal before they get cold. ;)
