Although some people do have genuine eating disorders, the vast amount of people who are overweight in the UK and other western countries are overweight because they are lazy and eat too much. Go to any eastern European country & see how many fat people you bump into. If you are fat STOP using all these silly excuses, like I'm depressed etc and cut down on chocolate and cakes. SIMPLE.
Blaming it on an eating disorder is not going to help you. Your grandparents probably were not fat becasue they didnt each so much crap.
Want to lose weight. DONT BUY CHOCOLATES! many people are overweight not because they eat to much but because of what is now being put into our food by the companies that sell it more fat more salt more chemicals just to name a few. alot of it also has to do with the bodies response to bad enviroment and the inabality to process the food correctly because of being slowly poisend by all the pollution higher stress due to what is expected from them on a day to day basis from familly friend work government and complete strangers many of these overweight people are on permanet diets with no sucsess not everyone who is overweight is so from over eating, some people have thyroid conditions that make them gain a vast amount of weight.
Also, BED (Binge Eating Disorder) IS a disorder, and like Anorexia and others it is not that simple to treat! So i dont think you should be so harsh on your judgements... |
