    I'm fat because I use food to eat away my emotions. I'm working on handling it, but it's a daily struggle.

    Candy Cakes and pizza.

    I use to eat cake for 'brunch'

    Because I also use to skip breakfast.

    Disagree. Can never have too much fruit. Or vegetables. Too much cheese or butter or critter fat is the real culprit.

    I work at Le Cordon Bleu. The food is amazing. AND FREE. I could'nt say no. NOW I can, and I do. I also give a crap. I used to not, and let myself go for a while.

    Rice, pasta, pizzas, burgers... mainly due to a lot of white carbs and eating excess amounts of it.

    School. Yep, I blame it all on school. I was thin until I hit first grade and the teacher made me sit still all day. School messed up my perfectly active lifestyle. And as if sitting still all day wasn't enough, then someone decided homework was a good idea. Then I had to come home from sitting in school all day and sit some more. Hey, it's my story, I can tell it any way I want. =)

    Bad eating habits from a young age, no healthy choices in the house, and I hate exercise because I'm so bad at it (which is because of my weight and eating habits. Ironic.) Uncontrollabe binge habits (I think I might have an eating disorder- I can't stop myself no matter what, even if I'm full! Probably just my mentality towards eating.) I love food, and last but not least, I've been overfed since I was a kid and still am, especially by my pushy Aunt who never lets me go on a diet. No matter how hard I try to say no, she forces me to eat five times more than I would've! What the heck! I had to live with her and her cooking for a few months. Oh, so much weight I tried to keep off. Lol nope.

    Pizza, lattes and crappy ex-boyfriends.

    I hope you cook the ex-boyfriends before you eat them. Maybe a little sauce would help?

    That..... and working in an office where people believed sharing was good they liked to share: donuts and cheesecakes a lot! And the trips to DQ for blizzards:-/

    And internalizing stress(still working on that). Now I have a nice case of borderline type 2 diabetes.

    For me it all comes down to emotional eating. I've known what I needed to do for years, but never liked myself enough to do it.

    Cause I really don't give a rip about "proving myself" through sports, physical activity or extreme fitness challenges. None of that has or ever will hold any interest for me in the slightiest, teeniest, tiniest little bit. I'd rather read a book or write or teach any day of the week. Even when I do physical things, like family hikes and such, I am motivated by the quality family time and educational opportunities, not the exercise aspect. I don't nor want to set myself any physical challenges for exercise sake alone nor to impress a single person on the planet. It's just not anywhere in my makeup to think that way although I know many people are excited by such things and I say good for them. I wish them all the luck in the world in what are obviously important achievements in their own mind. It's just not me! It's not laziness -- I work hard at what I do. I just don't set my sights or goals in that direction. But given my extreme apathy toward physical exertion (which took a medical crossroads involving the meds for my bum knee and ankle to burn through), I got rather careless about what I ate. Not so much junk food exactly as just alot of high fat, fried foods, mindless snacking and grazing and so on. So 1+1 = 2x my healthy weight goal and an obese BMI. But I am now 15.8 pounds from moving from "obese" to merely "overweight" on that that scale now. So moving in the right direction!

    Oh, where to begin...

    1. Being born and raised in the deep south. (Baldwin County, Alabama... Look it up. One of the southernmost counties in AL.)
    can you say FRIED EVERYTHING?! lol

    2. Getting too big of portions and any food I wanted as a child.

    3. Growing up on Mcdonalds

    4. Genetics

    5. Pure Laziness

    6. Not knowing when to say enough is enough.

    7. Being introverted and passing the time by hiding in my room by myself and eating alone.

    8. Eating late at night so no one could see me.

    9. An extreme addiction to doritos...

    10. Being a french fry, cheese, cheeseburger, chips, and icecream lover.


    The list could go on and on...
    *whew* Glad to get that off my chest.
