    i am fat because i enjoy all foods... fatty, healthy, sugary, etc. i enjoy them all and love them all equally. i indulge just as much if not more on healthy choices than i do on the unhealthy at times. LOL

    Because I've been irresponsible with my food and exercise choices on a consistent basis for several years. It's nobodies vault but my own. But its also under my control :)

    because I made excuses why I couldn't exercise and, while I ate healthy foods, I ate WAY too much!

    Not because of sweets... rarely have them...
    Not because of snacks... just started having them...
    But because of portions... when I sat down to eat... I ate!

    I'm an emotional eater and I used to be very, very sad.
    I got hurt in a car accident and that cut my already limited exercise down to none.
    I sit on my *kitten* all day at work and eat out of boredom.

    I am an emotional eater. I am now funneling it else where and dealing with the issues as they come up instead of bottling it up until it explodes and I eat and eat and eat. Most of the time when I need the "fix" I will go for a walk, bicycle, treadmill, gardening or something like that.

    I'm fat because I had a messed up thyroid ... now that it's fixed I have energy, an alert mind, and an enthusiasm to get moving :O))

    Because my parents spanked me when I was little, because I was emotionally traumatized by moving every 2 years as a kid, because it rained one day when I wanted to go for a picnic. I'm not fat, I'm a victim........


    Oh sorry, back to reality.......because I ate too much and exercised too little. No one held a gun to my head and made me eat that second piece of pie...........

    I didn't care enough about myself to take the time I needed to do what was good for me. Lack of exercise!!!! I generally always have been a pretty healthy eater.

    I'm fat because I like to eat. When PMS rolls around I'm scarfing down junk at an alarming rate. Two weeks out of the month of eating junk catches up after a while.

    because I'm a "Lazy Eater" I would prefer convenience over anything. EI... fast food over cooking. I like eating chips, why? because they are easy... Bagels and cream cheese is easier than making an egg white omelette. Peanut butter and Jelly sandwich is easier than making a healthy salad... (Okay who is hungry now)

    And because I just let myself go. I figure, I'm getting older (I'm 42 now) and who cares anyhow? Welll, I forgot that I cared.

    40lbs down! feeling wonderful! And I'm still a lazy eater, but I just found healthier options (I'm low-carb, no flaming please) such as string cheese, beef jerky, and celery. Things like that:) Who knew?!

    Thanks for this thread, definitely awesome!

    Because I wasted two ****ing years on my ex and would beat myself senseless if given the opportunity to travel back in time.

    I used to eat tons of carbs and, while I ate healthy foods, I ate WAY too much of them and never burnt any calories besides what I did walking. Which wasn't much.

    because I have a thyroid problem and went to college and gave up my healthy eating and exercising then met a guy who's family revolves around food and I ate too much cause It felt rude if I didnt.
