I come from a parent who was always overweight and blamed it on having babies. I had a baby and feared getting fat. I am now thinner than i ever was. My fear of weight gain escalated to an eating disorder. I have always wondered how people let themselves get so far overweight. Like if my pants feel tight i panic! Some people just go buy new pants. Why do people let themselves go so far? I beg that nobody be offended by me. Its just an honest question that i have always wanted to ask.

Hmmm...I see a lot of angry responses but I'm just gonna be honest.

For me it was/is just a matter of being so used to being big. Even when I was 8 or 9 years old I just always had excess fat on my body so it's pretty much all I can remember. I have always had friends, boyfriends, success in school and work, approval from family regardless of my size...my weight was made fun of (openly) so very rarely - it was not a "problem" to me. Doctors' visits never ended as I feared they might with diagnoses of weight related issues. Everything seemed fine.

So when the 16's gave way to 18's and all the way to 3X clothing I really didn't care. I always liked to shop and buying a size larger did not make me happy, but it didn't destroy me. I didn't give it much thought to be honest. Often my weight fluctuated a bit, so I figured the change from a 20 to 22 might be a particular cut or designer, it allowed me to deceive myself.
