    Hmm... I don't blame any one food for making me overweight. I blame my lack of portion control and physical activity.

    Nothing specific, just mindless eating. Probably emotionally-linked too.

    Something MFP logging has helped me address.

    Cheese I guess. I used have loads with spaghetti. I went through a stage of having 200ish grams of cheese every lunch with my microwave spag bol. As in, every day for several weeks.
    But just too much food in general. I never ate breakfast, would eat a lot for lunch, have a snack in the afternoon, eat a lot and unhealthily for dinner then eat sometime between then and bed. Yoghurts, crisps, pop tarts, whatever. Plus I had chocolate a fair bit. I'd improved with the snacking and the really bad habits over the last few years but it's only the last 3 months I've really been watching what I eat. While I was at school it was mostly comfort eating, since then it's just been for no reason really. I ate when I was hungry, sod the consequences. Not like that now though, in fact don't even get hungry that often apart from just coming up to meal times.

    Well I can say that I saw immediate change when i stopped eating fast food and soda. I have not partaken of fast food for about 6 months and drink nothing but water and the occasional a glass or two of milk. But mostly my weight gain was from lack of exercise and my horrible food portions.

    Well, the food didn't jump up into my mouth by itself, but seriously, bread, pasta,pototoes and rice in the unlimited quantities I ate them in. Actually, any mindless eating I did as well. Those foods were triggers that I never was satisified unless I had 2- 4 normal portions of.

    I don't blame the foods, I blame the amounts which is squarely on my shoulders. :)

    I can't blame the food, I blame the finger and the fork. They carried all the food...lol....No I really blame myself for not being strong enough to say no, no thanks or walking away. I still have the same forks and fingers they just take better direction now.

    You can't blame food. Food doesn't jump in to your mouth and starts chewing itself.

    I am the same way. It is a gross habit for which I kick myself for every time.
