    I like carbs. I had the self control to quit eating most bread. I was eating under 1000 cals a day and my unhealthy eating upset my boyfriend. I ate for him but still tried to monitor myself. I had some blood sugar issues that scared me. I over ate because I was afraid of passing out and from pressure from my boyfriend to " eat normal and exercise " I ate normal and didn't exercise and now being over weight has slowly crept up on me.

    I believe I got fat because as a child I was taught to eat all my food on my plate "or else" so thats what I have done for years
    I still eat everything on my plate I just measure it out now so I know exactly how much I am really eating :)

    For years I kept making excuses why I don't feel like exercising today or why it's okay to eat the whole pizza, hamburger & fries, etc.....instead of just eating in moderation, choosing healthier snacks and exercising more.

    Time for a lifestyle change!

    I throughly enjoy food.....I love eating it, talking about it, reading about it and watching it being prepared!
    I hate the process of trying to lose it, because it has taken all the enjoyment out of eating! To worried now about how many calories are in everything to even enjoy what I am eating!

    I am fat because I had binge eating disorder.

    In High School I binged and purged when my parents moved us to Yuma, AZ. It was the only thing I felt I could control as a teenager. It was easy and I was at my thinnest weight ever @ 115lbs. But I know it was not healthy. I won't ever do it again but having had an eating disorder it does cross my mind occassionally...

    I was near anorexic in high school then developed binge eating disorder. Then bulimia. It was bad. But right now I haven't binged or purged for almost five weeks so I'm hoping to continue on this path :)

    ....food was my friend. I turned to it when I was happy, sad, depressed, lonely, or any emotion in between. I ate myself to 282lbs and man that was a lot of yummy food. But totally not worth my life.

    It's very complicated, a hybrix mix of ignoring my weight, dealing with a goiter (which is now all better!), 5 years of fulltime college (I graduated) and some pretty awful eating habits for the last 6 years or so. Looking at my list, I see excuses, but I'm all done with excuses. One of my friends quoted from something that said, "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels." I think I understand that now. Working on taking off 84 pounds one day at a time.

    wine, margaritas, mexican food, pecan pie, movie theater popcorn, to name a few. ;)

    But usually I blame it on my 3 kids (pregnancy, breastfeeding, eating their leftovers)

    I quit playing sports but kept eating like I did when I was super active. And just not having any nutritional knowledge during those years.

    Well said. You're right. And that's the ticket!
