Common Reasons

How and why did it happen?

Well ain't that a million dollar question? So how did anyone come to this point? First of all understanding the types of problems associating with "weight gaining" is a good start. Here are some examples. 

There are many reasons why one would gain weight. Some are weird, some are justifiable, and some are just from plain ignorance. Let me just list down some of the general issues pertaining the reasons above.

• Depressed - According to one study in 2010 published in the American Journal of Public Health  found that people who feel sad and lonely gain weight more quickly than those who report fewer depression-related symptoms. "They may be eating more high-fat, high-calorie comfort foods," says Belinda Needham, assistant professor in the department of sociology at UAB and the lead author of the study. "Or they may have [cut back their] physical activity." Many anti-depressant medication prescribed by even your local psychiatrist could add in to this cause. 

 

•  Metabolism / Getting older - This is probably the most common phenomenon that is happening of will happen to anyone. And sadly it is unavoidable, though some people have naturally good and sustaining metabolism that last way much longer then the majority. 

• Overeating - The most easiest way to gain weight from and the easiest to avoid. Well, either way some people are born never to gain any weight no matter what they eat! Haha! But that's entirely genetics. But the question still remains, why do people still do it and if it's that easy to stop or avoid, why don't one just do it? It may sometimes be a little bit complicated.
