Because they don't try to help themselves! Most are spoiled, brainless people who just take and do whatever they please... or, some are truly addicted to large amounts of food and can't help it. I say they can, but... they don't seem to be very motivated. Also, the obesity issue is due to the terrible food Americans don't try to change. I've always wondered why they don't, but whatever. They can't get away from their pizzas and hamburgers, so too bad for them! They don't want to stop what's making them fat and unhealthy? Fine! Like I said- too bad for them!

There are many reasons and/or excuses for a person being fat.
1. There are people with medical problems that get fat because of their conditon.
2. There are medications with weight gain as a side effect.
3. There are people that have food issues(such as myself), that feel that food is a replacement for things that are missing from thier lives. I am an emotional eater. If I am sad I overeat, if I am mad, I don't eat at all.
4. People tend too be so busy excersise or too lazy.
5. Some people are unable to excersise the way they are supposed to because of medical conditons such as back problems or arthritis.
6. Alot of the foods we choose to eat are high in fat and sodium, these are usually the fast foods from resturants or the convience foods that we stick in the microwave.
7. Couch potatoes, which is not just tv watchers but gamers.
8. Gym or PE in schools are not always the best they could be.

It is very simple. Its because of the types of foods they eat. They consume too many foods high in calories. People think that fast food is the easy and quick solution but you can see the results now. In addition lots of people even if they cook at home they still cook unhealthy foods because they usually taste better and are easy to cook. They should keep this kinds of foods only for the weekend and not everyday!

There is't one single answer to why people eat too much. But there is a tendency for people to want to blame something other than the fact that they eat too much and exercise too little.
It's not McDonald's fault, nor Hostess Twinkies fault. We have gotten too far away from personal responsibility! Corporations will provide whatever we are willing to buy.

Because there is an increase in affluence. People have stable lives, thus their lifestyle become more materialistic and they consume more food. Plus they eat fast-food and other high-calorie food everyday.
