y question is the same as the Subject,
"Why are you fat?"
For me, I've always been a little overweight. Until I got pregnant, I was 160 and 5'5 for quite a few years. I was a little self-conscious but looking back at the pictures I don't know why. A few weeks ago I was 171 and now I'm 177.
I got fat during my pregnancy and a week after I had her, I had already lost 25 pounds. 17 pounds is a lot of fat & I never realized how much.
Oh .. & I love food and will eat anything in site.. haha.
So.. Why are you fat?

I used food as a comfort0

I wish I had a magical excuse that made it not my fault buuuuut...it's really just because I like to eat and I like high calorie foods.0

Always been fat. Fat baby, fat toddler, fat child, fat teen, fat adult. Of course i got bigger as I grew up... both naturally bigger and vertically bigger? My eating was definitely a problem... that and i didn't really exercise. I would eat 1, maybe 2, meals a day that were probably around the 4000 calorie range just themselves. :P while working or going to school. I also say i have a few medical issues that have always kept me big lol0

I did ok managing my weight until I got cancer and the doctor put me on steroids. They made me crave everything in sight.0

Was always small/average in high school. Met my husband 6 years ago and put on a little "romance weight" from all the wine&dining. I became pregnant earlier this year and unfortunately miscarried and just sunk into a depression eating everything I could get my hands on. I'm now back and ready to make a change for when we try for a baby next year. Needing all the support and friends I can get! I've got a min. of 50 lbs to lose0

Food, complacency / resigned to the fact that its a family body and babies :indifferent:0

I was always overweight even as a child and poor life style choices continued. Then, got PCOS/insulin resistance, which went un- diagnosed for many years and subsequently failed many diets.
Finally getting my health under control.0 -
I suck at portion control and I love frozen coke :-)0

I enjoyed college and not working out and playing sports like I used to. THen I got into drinking lots of beer and eating a lot. Then I got even more lazier and stopped working out completely.0

Ate way too much and didn't get off my blubbery butt! (unless it was to go to the fridge!) :laugh:0

Had a sucky childhood. Ate to not feel. Hard to disconnect from that when it starts that early. But I'm changing it now.0
