At the end of the day, you're the only one that puts the food into your mouth. Mc Donalds, Pizza Hut etc.. doesn't. The fridge doesn't open by itself?
So why not educate and blame the fatties?

Sorry, if anyone finds the word fat offensive, change it to "Over weight". By the way, I would be classed as 4 stone overweight.

i know what you mean and i used to think exactly the same.
the overweight / fat person is the one putting food into their mouths so its their own fault. but it is everywhere. every other shop in town is a food shop or a costa, theres pasties, pies burgers , subways hotdogs . you cant go to B&Q without being accosted by a burger bar, food in supermarkets is cheap. BOGOFS. also there are more additives that do untold damage. fizzy drinks are so disgustingly cheap.im not saying people are forced to buy this stuff but most people dont realise how bad it is . there fore they believe its not their fault. i symathise now. they need help and education.

I am a little overweight, I only blame myself.
I don't know why I am overweight because I DON'T eat loads of junk. In fact I hardly eat any at all. I don't eat a lot and I try to only eat healthily. I do go to the gym a couple of times a week.
I don't like McDonalds so don't eat it. I haven't eaten at Pizza Hut for two years, KFC is nice but only have once or twice in a year. The food in my house is all low fat, because mom has IBS.
I actually don't know where I go wrong. Someone told me I don't eat enough.
:-)))

I am 10stone and i consider that fat and i dont blame anyone but myself. But overweight people only blame otherpeople like Mc Donalds because they are trying to make themselves feel a bit better and trying to not feel guilty about what thy have done to themselves

I would agree that the majority of people do not have anyone to blame but themselves - but not everyone. Children can't make their own decisions on what to eat and whether or not it is healthy. Some people with serious medical ailments (like thyroid disorders) could eat carrots all day and still gain weight.

I think those of us who are fat or obese do not blame others. I find your statement to be a generalization. We know why we are fat or obese - we ate more food and did not burn enough calories. That is certainly the case for me and I love being my size at 620. I know I am responsible for my size - in fact I overate (and still do) so I would be very obese. I also think if I am asked about being fat or am the recipient of comments, I answer by saying "Thanks for noticing my size; yes, I am fat and I love it!"

the schoolyard bully is never far from our minds as we choose to be the aggressor rather than a victim. It's actually none of your business how overwieght someone else is and I get bored by body fascists.

i mean ya when i was little an my mom forced me to eat everythign on my plate or gave me chocolate and ice cream, that was not my fualt, when i begged me dad to put me into hockey when i was 10 it was not my fualt that i was realitively unactive and ate badly
but in the end its my responsibility to not fallow the habits i grew into. although i do eat badly i get more than enough exersize to cope with it, if i were to get injured and continue eating that way. its my fualt i'm eating badly its not my mom's its not my dad's it's not mr. mcdonald ist mien and only mine

Its easier to blame others than to take responsibility for your own actions.. It allows you to continue the bad behavior without any guilt.
