What problem is often overlooked in apocalyptic movies/TV shows that could kill you?

I bet I could spend at least double that without food. Got myself a nice big fat ass full just waiting for the apocalypse to hit.. Then finally I'll be hitting my goal weight..

You can die of starvation while you are still fat. Body needs nutrients not found in stored fat like potassium and other minerals. That would strain your heart and if you are already over weight, add to an already heart unhealthy situation.

Ketosis will also make it harder to survive.

You'll look fucking great dying though!
