[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think what OP is asking, albeit in a very inartful way, is how very obese people got that way.  I once read answers to this question on a Weight Watchers forum, it was anonymous. Pretty much every single person who responded told a story of some sort of trauma, the majority of which were sexual abuse.  It seems that some people cover up their inner hurt with food rather than alcohol or drugs. They don't really pay attention to how big they are until one day they realize they are 300 pounds. It's easy to make fun of these people or label them as stupid or lazy for getting that way but there is so so much more to it. We should sympathize with them and help them, not offer our scorn.[/quote]

That would mean that more than 50 percent of Americans have experienced some sort of terrible trauma, mostly sexual abuse?

Impossible. Plus, young children are obese now too. Are you saying "just about every single" one of them has already experienced some trauma?
