I don't want to be offensive to overweight people but I want to discuss this further.
I could never get fat. I'm very picky and missed many meals because of it -- still. I get full and then I don't want to eat anymore. I'm not sure how anyone could bypass that little catch that tells you you're full. Personally, it makes me physically sick to eat too much.
While I'm sure it doesn't help, it can't be diet alone. I used to live off fast food, TastyCakes, Pizza, Cheese, Bread, Potato chips, Resse's peanut butter puffs cereal with whole milk and honeybuns until I realized ...that shit is actually killing me. All kinds of fatty foods and carbs is all I ate. Never in my life gained a pound from it past adulthood anyway.
I have to intentionally try with all my might to gain weight, and I lose it if I become inactive. I don't get fat like other people who are inactive. I don't understand that honestly. How can you eat a lot if you don't do anything? I can't even get an appetite to eat 3 healthy meals if I sit in my chair all day.
If it isn't just in the genes, then I don't understand how anyone could ever become fat unless they had parents that force them to finish meals or something.
Something I've read from a few credible sources is that your body will try to maintain the weight you were at when you were about 18. So if you were fat when you were about 18, then your body will try to be fat for the rest of your life. If you were too thin, then you will have trouble gaining weight. Don't know, but it seems to be true as far as I can tell.
