Why do Americans eat, eat and eat?

because eating is fun

Why do Americans eat

It's a combination of things--mostly it's too little exercise (due to too much convenience of "non-physical" activities and hobbies, lack of proper social places TO get exercise like parks and sidewalks, etc.) and having food WAY to convenient.

Plus we're CONSTANTLY exposed to it---billboards, TV/Radio, restaurant ads, in line at check-out counters, vending machines, online. If you're constantly exposed to it, you're going to be constantly thinking about it. And the more you think about something, the more you'll tend to engage in whatever it is you're thinking about--food, sports, TV, etc..

I really hate that part of America. We're so extreme; it's either those "health-nuts" who are obsessed with tracking EVERYTHING or those people who don't know or don't care and are obsessed with eating EVERYTHING. Then there are people like me, who grew up around both types of people, and now I have no idea myself really how to handle things like food and therefore struggle a LOT. I know what's healthy and good, and most of the time I can stick to it, but sometimes seeing ads for a nice chocolate cake or someone else eating it, I start to think, "I've been really healthy lately. And I've been putting a lot of time into school. Plus I just aced that big exam... Maybe I deserve it."

And then that piece of chocolate cake will turn into two pieces, and BOOM I (someone who eats fruit & oatmeal for breakfast and salads for dinner, and runs 6 miles several times a week plus strength trains) just become one of the lazy Americans.

It's a roller coaster. And I'd REALLY like to get off.

Because they're hungry. Do you starve yourself?
