If you eat enough for long enough your stomach will strech to be able to hold more.

Because the effects of eating release happy chemicals. Eating is effectively a drug. And the worse you feel about yourself, the more you want your happy drug. I don't understand the disapprobrium towards overweight people.

Also, Google Chrome, disapprobrium is a perfectly reasonable word, correctly spelled, and in common parlance. Stop underlining it in red squigglies and making out that I don't understand my own language. Grr!

Well it's like this...

They eat how you eat...

But they just eat more.

Sometimes it's not just food but also a medical condition or something. Put yourself in their shoes, so to speak. I'm sure they don't want to be that big. It could happen to any of us. Just saying.

You'll notice that fast foods dont give you that satiated feeling and you still end up hungry afterwards, whereas natural/whole foods do. It would also have to do with nutrient intake as opposed to preservative intake. Take a bag of mixed fruit and veg and run in through and juicer, and then take an entire McD's value meal and do the same. Looking simply at the end result should be enough to put people off eating crap but it isnt.

Honestly?
I love Wendy's burgers, I love McDonalds fries, I love mall food court food and KFC chicken. But every time I want to go and buy the stuff, my little voice which must be an amateur accountant tells me that I already have food at home, I'll regret wasting the money later and heating up a bagel or making myself some eggs will make me feel just as full as a Wendy's Burger.

My husband and I did the calculations and have come to the conclusion that eating most meals as fast food would actually be more expensive for us than our current system of going to the store, buying our meat, bread and veggies for the week and just eating at home. Go figure.

I eat fast food when I can think of a really good excuse to so about once or twice a month. Fast food and cookies and ice cream and that shit is a great indulgence but not much else. I don't eat healthy but I don't eat complete crap either.

What I hate the most is how women are portraid in the media. I know women who gained a LITTLE bit of weight and I know their hurting because there isn't a minute without weight loss commercials making them feel horrible. I just hate knowing some of my friends are hurting on how they look.

Its normal to think this way, yes! However, I am considered "obese" and it's due to medical conditions! I have thyroid problems and sleeping problems (I won't bore you with the specifics). Anyways, while you're being normal I would want you to stay cautious and realize that some people do not choose to be fat, for some it's just a burden that even the most best thyroid medications can't fix, no matter how much exercise you do! And ps- I eat so healthy it's kinda ridiculous, and I'm a vegetarian !

Lolz I eat a shit ton of all of the foods you just mentioned. Difference is that I am an extremely active guy, and am always on my feet running from here to there burning calories. I have no idea how the bed ridden people got to that point. It just baffles me!

I find it kind of gross when I see morbidly obese people just shoving down tons of food down their throats in restaurants. It makes me not want to finish my meal.

i think thats not how much you are eating its how much you are using it... many people eat normally but as they dont work much and remain lazy all the time they gain weight... and thanx to make me feel that its ok if i am a bit crossing ideal weight i look healthy and clumsy ..!! (happy)

Fat is never normal. I don't know how they can do it. I guess it's like the centre of the tootsie pop question.
