How does a fat person get so fat, if I start to gain too much weight I go on a diet and go to the gym. I've seen girl go from 5 ft 110 pounds to 5ft 210 pounds in 6 months. A guy at my work weighed 220 pounds and was 6 foot 2 inches and one year later, he weighed 380 pounds.
How do you get so fat, why would you let yourself get so obese?

We have over 120 million people in the united states that are either overweight or obese. It can either be depression, psychological, bad eating habits. We have so many people who want to be so delicate about this problem, when do people start taking care of themselves.
Did you know that a obese people can take medical leave and the company has to pay indefinitely. (yes, if you get to big to come to work company will pay for your medical leave). Nice huh?
When do overweight/obese people take responsibility for there own problems, or maybe we should just bill the tax payers.
So lets stop making excuses for them and for yourself...

well, mine started after 2 kids (c-sections) Then had back surgey so it's still hard to do alot of things. My depression added to my weight gain, then caused some health problems that didn't help the situation. Just going on diets aren't as easy for some people as they are for others. It's almost like stopping smoking or chewing. You may not believe that or undersatnd that unless you have went through an addiction like some. You really can't judge unless you are in each individuals shoes. But at least you didn't ask the question in a very rude way as some people do.

I myself am not obese, but obese people get that way form a number of things. Stress could be one problem and you start to eat as a comfort and you keep doing it and it just become a natural thing. You could just be geneticly built to be obese, and/or some health problem could make a person obese.

I was a thin person until I had my daughter and then something happened to my metabolism. I just started gaining weight. I didn't eat anymore than before her birth and I am just as active. Honestly, do you think a person who is heavy would choose to be that way? No. I would love to be my pre-birth weight, but no matter how much I try, I can't seem to lose weight. It is very frustrating. So please, don't always think that heavy people are pigs and lazy. We aren't.

Eating too much, and not moving around enough. Unfortunately, a lot of the time, there is a psychological problem underlying the behavior (or lack thereof)

Yeah.. you're right. It does sound insulting, and you sound incredibly immature. Like everyone has been saying: It's a slew of different things! How old are you? You're definetely not older than 16, it's common sense! That's like saying, "How do people get so depressed? If I start to get depressed, I just get on meds and go to a psycologist." It's not that easy for most people who gain weight. Do you think that they WANT to be obese? I don't thiink sooo...
Niiice.

I'm only about 100 lbs, but...
As far as I know, it's hereditary. But depression can both make you gain, and lose.
There are many ways, I guess.

You don't have to be so rude about it. Depression is like one main reasons people gain weight and its not like they plan on gaining so much weight. It just happens.
