Why are you fat?

Your quest to loss some weight if you are interested, will not see the light until you identify why you are fat in the first instance and then work to avoid all the identified reasons. Though in the beginning, a lot of fat people do not want to accept that they are fat and usually pick a quarrel if anyone makes an observation, there comes a time when they can no longer hide from it.

The thing is, when you finally agree that you are fat, do you just say ‘okay, I know am fat and there is nothing I can do about it’. Then put up with it? Or do you take up the challenge and start doing something about it?

So why are you fat?

Usually I get replies like; “I eat at wrong times of the day, at the wrong quantities. I have 3 kids; I run a business that takes away all the time I could have exercised. Between the business and my three kids’ daily activities at school that I volunteer at, as well as every other extra curricular activity, I really don't find the time to make sure I eat right.

I must be sure my children eat well though. While they're eating, I'm cleaning, or getting ready, or cleaning up spilt milk, etc. I miss meals, when it is time for me to eat; I eat it really big because I am really very hungry by then. I know what I am doing is wrong but what do I do?”

Others tell me stories like; “I don't drink enough fluids, when I do, its usually coffee, but I gag on water, I've tried checking this myself, and I am almost succeeding, I'm down to a coke every other day, and that is about 4 bottles a week, instead of everyday, though I still have my coffee. But now I'm up to two bottles of water a day....however, either way, still not enough fluids at all right?”

Yes enough fluid is alright but not when the fluid is coffee and coke. A bottle of coke is said to contain about 8 cubes of sugar and coffee doesn’t just contain caffeine that affects your nerves when you grow older but increases your cholesterol level. I have told people, it doesn’t matter whether it is decaff.

Another excuse people give themselves. “I was too busy working and wasn’t eating enough then I became anemic. I wouldn't be if I was eating properly. If I really wanted to eat well I could probably have worked out a schedule to make sure I eat the right things at the right times. Now the doctor wants me to eat more but I am now fat trying to do what the doctor said. I have tried to cut out the soda, and focus more on water, and I do some light walking as I was not supposed to get involved in very strenuous physical activities as at then. How do I loss weight without becoming anemic again?”

Whatever is your excuse or ‘reason’ you need to start knowing that excuses will only worsen your health status. So knock if off! You will not get better with excuses. Take the responsibility for your own health. Stop blaming the doctor, your kids or your job. It is all about you being a little bit more vigilant and determined to save your own life.

With all these excuses, you will begin to eat emotionally, stuffing a lot of chocolate, binging at any opportunity. Seeking solace in food is the worst thing you can do for your mode. Exercises will put you in a better frame of mind.
 
I'm fat because I have an oral fixation. I chew on pens, necklaces...I go through sunflower seeds like crazy just to keep my hands and mouth busy. I'm allergic to tobacco and so I'm not able to use that to assist me. Especially having grown up in an amazingly stressful home (mother with bpd) and now being on my own have contributed! I finally found something today in my quest to get things back down to size that I'm hoping helps! It's a false cigarette that has flavor cartridges! When it comes in, I'll post more information about it and whether or not it helps!
 
I blame it on Fraternity boys. Just kidding - sort of. I drank every night my first year of college. After first semester, I joined a sorority and it gave me even more opportunities to go out and not watch my health. Our sorority house also has a chef and I think she secretly feeds us lard.
 
I agree. College pretty much started my readily available food source and now that I make my own money, I have enough to buy whatever I want to eat whenever I want it....I was healthier when I was poor, lol!
 
I'm overweight because I eat too much
I eat to much of the wrong things
I don't excersise.
I don't blame McDonalds, or anyone else. :)
 
First thought upon reading this thread... "well, no shit!":rolleyes:

Because I'm lazy and eat too much.

Oh dayum, I found out the secret.

*gasp!* Oh no! Now you did it! Now EVERYBODY knows the truth!!! :eek:

Finally! someone has unlocked the secret to weight loss!!! Up until now I had been completely lacking the common sence I needed to know that sitting on my ass and eating left over doritos for breakfast wasn't a good idea... somebody call Operah!!!

I figured you were overweight due to everyone taking dumps in your mouth!

My weight loss really started in college... once it hit me that I was becoming an adult and needed to be a bit more responsible regarding food, studies and everything else the weight started running away from me.

I lost about 20 pounds my freshmen year, another 10-15 my sophomore and since the end of my sophomore year until now (halfway through junior) I've lost about 60 pounds.
 
lol ok... well there was no indication of a joke and it's a little hard to tell how a person is saying something over the internet without it... plus that was a few days ago and I sort of forgot about that. It was Kind of out of no where so i'm like why is this guy being an ass and saying people take a dump in my mouth! Was It the Operah bit?
 
Wow, the link to that other thread just made this thread worth reading. :willy_nilly:
