Why I Am Obese And My Battle With it

How It Starts

   When I was a child I was raised in an environment where everyone was fat. My entire family is fat. My mother is the skinniest female in my family (exculding me and my cousin scince we we're nine). My mom is over 250 and is 5'3.75. In this enviorment I learned very unhealthy habits such as eating when bored, tired stressed or just cause you wanted to eat. As I got older I got fatter and the effects didn't really kick in until 7th grade. 7th grade was a tough year for me but this is a different side if the story. As I aged I realized more and more how fat I was, I always knew I was bigger but till then I was really just on the chunky side. Being exposed more and more to self hate and depression and self harm. I hated myself and didn't exactly know why. It starts from the day youre born. The enviorment your raised in. If you were raised in a starving town you'd learn to eat small portions infeaquently, but there is NO PERFECT WAY TO PARENT OR BE OR LOOK and I want that to be clear. Nurture decides what's accaptable for your future and is the foundation of our lives. Yet we still have no regulations on the #1 killer in the United States, Heart Disease which is caused by overeating, being overweight or obese and smoking
