why do you care?
stupid wh0re
High fructose corn syrup. It's in almost every prepared food. It is a high calorie ingredient with no nutritional value, and I think it is making us fat and diabetic.
McDonalds!
the increasing uncaring of the american public to obesity. and the readily available fatty foods. these are both contributors to the fatness epidemic.
The American Diet!
Too many fattening foods, fast foods, not enough exercise, and they won't stop shoveling.
Ya.why do you care? Maybe some people can't help it if they;re FAT!
its not always there fault so i hope this isnt a judgmental question noone knows what they will turn out like in a few years
Because its a matter of self control.We have a million fast food places in our faces and Americans are known for being over eaters..Fat people will tell you its Genetic but if you come from fat parents you are gonna pick up thier Eating habits..and you were raised eating fatty foods. When you walk into a fast food place or something like that look at the size of the people there.you will notice that most of them are overweight.then put the two together..Eating bad food makes people fat.
As Americans we have access to a wide variety of high-calorie foods, many of which contain so-called "empty calories" that don't make us feel full. Combine this with our dependency on cars and a lack of suburban infrastructure in many places that would allow people to walk or bike instead, and you have a situation where too many people are taking in more calories than they are using up.
why are people so stupid? why are people so dumb? why are people so ignorant?why do people ask really stupid questions?
for many reasons.. why are you insecure of your self to ask such a question
Taking the food away from you skinny people.
Because they eat fries,the go to fast food places all the time and the don't like to exercise.
B-Cuz they are fat-a-holics. I dont know, I work out at the gym, eat decent, and take care of myself and I really do not have to worry about getting fat. But I think a lot of it has to do with fast food and eating portions way too big and not excersising. Also I think some people who have fat genes in there family they take it and run with it like it is an excuse to get fat.
There are many books exploring this question - there are no simple explanations. Most of the above answers give at least part of the reason - the final explanation will probably never be known.
are you fat? or are you poking fun at those who are over weight?

if you are poking fun.

Some people do over eat. Me? I do have thyroid disease. It is a living hell. I have been on medication since I was 14. If I stop eating.my body goes into shock and I actually gain weight. I watch what I eat.but for some.that is not always enough.for those on here who answered "I go to the gym..I eat right" Well, it works for you. But everyone is different. Do not judge others. Please do not make such stupid comments. You do not know what it is like for someone else.
Fastfood, lack of excercise and possibly mild depression.
i think after people r done wit their teenage years some dont care anymore bout how they look so they just dont do anything and get fat.its really sad cuz i dunno who would want to look like that and then just feel bad bout themselves? everyone should be fit and healthy and feel good but people r too frickin lazy to make changes and they give up too fast. well all i kno is i am always going to be skinny and healthy and not get like the rest of america is getting! :)
Monosodium Glutamate - it mimics a neural chemical that nearly addicts you to any food that you eat which contains it. Image how our population would suffer if the food industry had permission to put cocaine in there products - well MSG is the closest thing to that. Have you ever noticed "Natural Flavors" or "Yeast extract" or "Molasses extract" or " hydrolyzed soy protein" as an ingredient in food? -- that's MSG!

Also high fructose corn syrup - this sweetener does not occur in nature! But think about it - why is corn fed to cattle? -- to make them fat!
why r u such a b****
Some people simply don't have a very healthy lifestyle. They eat the wrong foods and they don't exercise. However, there are some real physical problems that can cause a person to be large. Joint problems can prevent someone from exercising. Thyroid problems can cause extremes in weight either way.
