For me thats a bigger thing than this "fat gene"

How parents feed their children really depends on how they grow up, so many people overfeed their kids, so many chubbies nowadays.

Many moons ago when i was a youngster,fast food/take aways was an absolute treat.Birthdays,special occasions etc.Sadly,it seems to be the norm now.

[30stone]

LOL.
Silly eh.

I have eaten well for 3 and a half years.
And occasionally for about 3 months go ultra strict diet.

Was told when dieting to eat 1 cheat meal a week or every 2 weeks lol (for gaining weight) and have to eat over 1500 calories in that one meal.

Some people can never be hugely fat no matter how hard they try, a study was done giving slim men upto 10,000 calories per day.. Many put on 20pounds and could not gain any more weight..

Horizon on BBC4 had a good program about this and other studies..

[andyman]

Half Ton Dad now on More4, then its Half Ton Man.. True!

[FelixO]

i used to be a lardyboy, and hate fat people that moan about it, its simple to do something about it and no exscuse really

[andyman]

I'm like that too. I've never had any problem with my weight since I lost 20 kilos. Now I take care of it, exercising, still doing rugby, did some handball, eating healthy (let's say a good balance between everything).

I'm one of those lucky bastards that can eat your house and still be slim - it drives my missus crazy.

Yer in all seriousness, some people are fat because they have deep psychological issues, possibly been abused and some through health problems/genes etc...bit harsh too judge

[Crimson Dynamo]

Partly right, but it isn't all to do with what we eat.

An average, moderately active 19 year old can consume 5,000 calories per day, yet someone in their mid 30s on 2,500 calories per day can still gain substantial weight.

Look at the gangly teenagers walking the street, thin as poles, their jeans hanging down their butt cheeks. That after consuming numerous pizzas, chips and fizzy pop all day.

Well they are eating obviously!...point is I can eat the same as someone else and they may put on more weight than me because of metabolism etc

but it is not an excuse for being fat as some seem to be indicating.
