I am fat because I ate WAY too much (oh yeah, and developed hyperthyroidism without realizing it until I'd gained 80 lbs).

oh_em_gee

I didn't love myself enough to realize I deserve better heallth

I am fat because... I chose not to change.

BLSaw

cause i eat when i am bored, tired, thinking, not thinking, pretty much all the damn time!!!!!

smilesalot1969

.....i sat on my backside eating just for the sake of eating. Bad habit eating biscuits and cake when i was too lazy to make proper food

I wasnt ready to take personal responsiblity for my actions.. When I deciced I was ready for a change, it came.

i am fat because i enjoy all foods... fatty, healthy, sugary, etc. i enjoy them all and love them all equally. i indulge just as much if not more on healthy choices than i do on the unhealthy at times. LOL

Um you're not fat baby.

oh_em_gee

I also have no self control, at all

I love food - and my family loves food - and my friends love food - and its not usually a case of "ooo ooo i'm craving broccoli" :laugh:

I am fat because....I used food as a coping mechanism.

zophiel67

You name it, I'm probably guilty of it. Overindulgence of sugar & carbs. CHEESE. Lack of exercise. Emotional eating. Beer. Not liking myself much. Thinking I could get away with it. BEER. Boredom. Unconscious eating (munchies). Cheese. No one's fault but my own, though!

sassylilmama

Never learned as a kid what healthy eating was and being in active was the norm in my family. I was lazy and didn't know when to stop eating.

Jay_Jay_

Emotional eating, more specific sugars and carbohydrates which would further cause me to emotional eat. Once I cut those out it was clear sailing.

I LOVE FOOD, and it DOESN'T like me lol....but I'm going to win this war

sherim71

I am fat because I love sweets. Little Debbie and Hostess were my BFF!! And who knew pop/soda made me retain water?? And bread - mmmmmmm. And convenience foods. LAZY *kitten*!!! and probably many more reasons.

I'm not fat anymore, but I got fat because I didn't get enough exercise and didn't adjust to my body's changing needs as I got older. And also because I got too lazy to cook healthy meals from scratch. We were eating out too often and eating way too much "meal in a bag" type food at home.

GeorgieLove708

Because I'm unhappy when I'm overweight and I eat when I'm unhappy. Because I was underfed for the first several years of my life and overfed after my Grandma saved me from my bio-mom. Because I got depressed after my miscarriages. Because it seemed safer to have a "blanket of fat" protecting me from the world.

This!

Timmyttt418

I ate unhealthy
I didn't work out
I became too comfortable in relationships & let myself go
I got lazy
I am fat because of nobody but myself.

Change is on the way, because "I am a work in progress!"

Heather_Rider

because i was skinny, and ate whatever i want.. and then, while skinny, at age 24.. i had two strokes from blood clots that went to the brain due to a blocked artery... when i was bed ridden for almost a year while recovering from the strokes.. i became over weight.

Skinny doesnt mean healthy! Now, im getting healthy!

kaseysospacey

I like to eat, I went years without my thyroid meds, I skip meals and then binge alll at once and eat a ton, and I ate crap only for years. A lot of factors go into getting this fat. Also, 3 babies in 4 years.

moonlightturk

I was a lazy emotional eater. Food was my source of hope? Not anymore though...haha I conquer!

aqm22

...beacause I don't move around enough.

saxmaniac

I *WAS* fat because didn't match my calorie/macronutrient intake to my activity level.

barkin43

because I ate too much when I was hungry;
ate too much when I was not hungry,
ate when I was bored,
ate when I was happy,
ate when I was unhappy,
ate when I was depressed,
ate just for spite (gee, wonder who that was hurting!),
bottom line -- ate too much and sat around on my butt too much! :yawn: :laugh: :devil:

When I ate something bad, I get obsessive of it.. I am trying to resist it since I want to lose 9 lbs but I'm also worried I'm going to get too comfortable and gain it right back..
