Hmmm...why?
Well, let's see. I am not offended, if I was not overweight or obese, would I be here? Nope, don't think I would. But your question is how? How did I get so huge? You may not believe what I am about to tell you, but I never ate much. I skipped meals, had no structure or eating habits. When I felt hungry (which was not often) I had something with sugar. A candy bar, ice cream, just a little something like that chocolate cake! Milk and cookies...yep, that was a nice nightly deal. Ooops! I forgot my dinner, no worries, I'll just have milk & cookies. A healthy diet for me at the time. The huge amounts of foods where never part of my diet. So, not all of us got to be where we were when we started our diets, by overeating. Maybe in Germany people eat 3 balanced meals a day and their metabolisms obviously respond well. Mainly because their metabolisms have not been killed by low fat diets, 3 day crash diets, vegetarian diets, and so on. You see? We've tried so many diets, we've slowly killed our furnace (metabolism). Now, that we know a little better, it's a lot harder. But NOT IMPOSSIBLE. We will all achieve our goals. WHY? Easy, because we are DETERMINED, FOCUSSED & MOST IMPORTANTLY, WE HAVE THE SUPPORT OF OTHER PEOPLE HERE!
Thank you for your question. Sometimes questions such as yours make you realize, This diet thing ain't going so bad after all!
