Because if they did they'd eventually die-same as everyone else.
That having been said, don't let the politically correct people sway you to thinking that a lot of overweight or obese people out there are like that because of a medical condition. The percentage of the population that does suffer from such a condition is very small. The majority of overweight people are in that condition because of a lifestyle that includes tremendously unhealthy, processed foods and a gross lack of physical activity.
They could, and should, change their lifestyle but it would require a concerted effort that most are not willing to put forth, claiming that it is "just too hard". There seems to be a push amongst the politically correct to indulge them and tell them that it's okay to be fat when clearly it is not. It is a danger to their own life! What we should be condoning and promoting is a healthy lifestyle.

Technically, no one could stop eating alltogether. The eternal fast would ultimately lead to the ultimate resting place. Howver, I think I understand your question, regardless.
The amount of calories a particular person consumes is correspondent with their weight. That is to say, a thinner person requires less calories to maintain their weight, while a larger person would require more. For example, men like Arnold Shwartzanegger (did I spell that right?) need a high caloric intake to maintain their mass.
What is the point of all this? Biologically, "fat" people are eating enough to maintain their body weight.
If they are gaining weight, they are consuming too much. This is when factors like genetics, medicines, psychiatric disorders (e.g. depression) etc., come into play.
hope that was understandable!

Some of them are addicted to food. Others don't eat any more than thin people, but don't get as much exercise. Still others have medical problems that prevent them from maintaining a slim figure.

Food is an addiction like heroin and alcohol. I do not think that it is their fault. My husband is from Africa, when I met him he was 113 pounds. now he is 155. Their is a lot of food advertised. People become addicted. Hell, I am addicted to chewing on my knuckles. Some times they even bleed.

some people have a disorder, it may be a mental things where they are depressed and food makes them feel better. Some it is hereditary. I am sure there are other reasons, but make sure you are sympatheitc to them, they have feelings just like anybody else

its eather depression or not enough exercise or that they have an eating disorder, or very low matablism so when they eat food it dosn't get digested as fast but you still get hungry after a while.
