The laws of physics apply to the poor as well.
It is much harder to count calories (and avoid eating more than you should) when you're eating junk food than when you're eating good food. Why? Junk food doesn't really satisfy your appetite; it feeds the craving for sugar and salt, but that craving only gets worse.
Aside from that, junk food isn't healthy; too much bad fat, too much refined sugar, not enough vitamins/minerals, not enough complete protein.
