Probably because they are Gluttons and have not come to realize that they too will not inherit God's Kingdom. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/lv/r1/lp-e/0/33447 click on this link and read about Gluttony—Why Avoid It? Also gluttony condemned by God why avoid it. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/lv/r1/lp-e/0/31066 Keep Avoiding the Snare of Greed
“Be on your guard against greed of every kind, for even when a man has more than enough, his wealth does not give him life.”—LUKE 12:15, The New English Bible. Notice what happened to the gluttons in paragraph 3. Click on the link and read the article.

Yeah I'll tell you why Christians are often overweight Christians go to church and most churches have free dinner and free fellowship at the church and send you out to restaurants where you can do all you can eat where of course that's what Christians do eat and eat and eat.

Our obesity problems started soon after Jesus freed us from His Old Testament food laws found in the Book of Leviticus chapter 11. Eating the unclean classification of creatures listed in this diet including all pig products are causing unwanted diseases to inflict the modern human body that we would not get if we didn't eat these classification of unclean creatures including obesity and the other diseases associated with obesity. These warnings are based on the God of Abraham's working knowledge of the germ theory of disease and the modern human body and other advanced fields of science unknown to mankind at that time and some fields of science still unknown to mankind today to help keep our bodies healthy and disease free until we grow old and die of old age. So why would Jesus being Yahweh in the flesh abolish His followers from having to follow this diet knowing the diseases it would inflict on their bodies?I don't think for a minute that Jesus would intentionally do that to His
Source(s): followers and that we have misinterpreted Jesus stand on this matter. I stopped eating all pig products from my diet and lost 30 pounds of body fat and went from a size 42" waist down to a size 36" waist. This diet was designed for the whole human race to follow and not just a certain race of humans to help keep our bodies healthy and disease free until we grow old and die of old age and should be the only diet all humans should follow. The God Yahweh our Intelligent Designer and the missing link in the chain of evolution. - How do you think about the answers? You can sign in to vote the answer.

Because they live in fear of everyone finding out they're not really Christian at all. So they stay inside all day and do nothing, then sneak out after the sun has gone down and eat. Yet as living beings, we're only supposed to eat during the daytime, and drink water during the night time. Every bite that you eat after sundown will only make you fat.

Same reason other people are often overweight. We eat too much and exercise too little.
