Other than yourself (of course), who would you put the blame on? I for one, put most of my blame on Ben and Jerry for creating peanut butter cup ice cream, second would be Smuckers hot fudge, and third, my ex boyfriend >:)

    Haha, damn Buffalonians! I could stop at two wings so I can't blame them.

    I blame college. Nothing like drinking 4 nights a week and eating pizza everyday to create a healthy lifestyle.

    Nobody puts a gun to your head to stuff your face. How can you blame anyone else for it? You and you alone make the daily eats choices and if you are lead by others, still your fault for not being strong minded.

    I think we can all say that this is a tongue in cheek post... there are no actual people being blamed.... yet...

    Think you're missing the point / humorous intent of the OP.

    I blame college and all of the little, daily things (binge drinking) that segue so nicely into eating junk food.

    Also, my parents, just because...

    Seriously, only me. And, not knowing how to express my feelings instead of stuffing them inside. It has taken years to figure this out.

    Cows and those wonderful cheeseburgers that they contribute so much to... droooooool... And Mexican food in its cheesy gloriousness. And nobody put a gun to my head to make me eat them. But it's fun to blame them in this goofy forum post :smile: So, that's it for me. Cows and Mexicans.

    The first time, myself.

    The second time, my doctor for missing a million signs that I had a medical condition causing the weight gain and needed to be medicated. Five years and 36 pounds later, I'm finally being treated.

    I've been told that the pounds you lose, go directly to the @ss of your enemy. I must have made a lot of enemies.... :s That, and the crazy, bi*$% in the back of my mind that says "Sure, one chip will be just fine..." I'm crying into an empty bag in no time :o

    But seriously...we all make our own decisions, mine just really sucked.

    Well, I gained weight because I had two kids, there wasn't much eating involved for the weight gain with me, but geez, man, harsh words for a lighthearted discussion.

    This is fun. Moe's... for those darn chips and burrito's. The makers of Vodka and now all the new flavors that I just "have to find" a new fun recipe". I may as well add my husband and kids for the junk they keep in the house. Oh, and pop makers... they are the devil. Its all their fault. They put the gun to my head daily.

    of course, ultimately, Obama

    Me. We could go back and analyze why my dysfunctional childhood turned me into the person I am -- but the more I blame it the more I cede my choices to excuses and bad habits developed in childhood. That's throwing in the towel and I'm not willing to do that yet.

    pharmaceutical companies. If they didn't make these meds that make me sane I would probable be "crazy" but thin

    My kids, specifically my youngest. Most of my health issues have come along since having her. :angry: I imagine one more pregnancy and my body would have been like "Nope, screw you. I quit!" :\

    Ooops, forgot to blame Moe's specifically. Billy Barou nachos and a coke... If I had that now, it would be all I could have in one day. And coke, how wonderful that dark tooth destroying calorie and sugar laden beverage is. It's how I got through college and how I used to get through the day.

    Whoever decided that food should taste good. If I had to live like Bear Grylls and eat blades of grass & slugs, I doubt I'd overindulge!

    I blame people with celiac disease. It's my obligation as a good citizen to eat all the bread and cookies so that they don't have any left and thus don't put their health at risk. When I eat pizza I'm doing a favour to the community. :)
