I have struggled with being overweight. I like food so much it is hard for me to stop eating sometimes.

I can imagine ! I am overweight as well.  Are their any specific diets you have followed in the past ?

I have tried many different diets. Once I lost 30 pounds on a ketogenic diet. Then I gained it back the next year, lol.

Yes, I have on occasion had more body fat than optimally healthy. Excess weight is not good for us. I gain weight just by smelling food !

I remember how much better I felt when I was an ideal weight. You are right that extra weight is harmful to us.

It's not just the adults that are overweight. I've noticed in shopping malls (people watching of course) that CHILDREN as well are overweight at tender young ages...

Yeah, I think a lot of times the parents are to blame for that. Too much candy and sitting at home will make any kid overweight. In my case I didn't gain weight until I got married.

Yes, lack of exercise, and lifestyles contribute to the majority of overweight persons.  I'm just old, fat and happy lol

Well, at least it is a problem we can fix. No one is born overweight lol.

Hmm Some babies are huge and born with lots of hair, but yea, start them off small and lets ALL go on a diet.
