Why do people eat things that they know are going to make them over weight or &q!
Question:
Why is it that McDonalds is so popular but still people know it is going to make them unhealthy. Seriously, if you don't belive me see the movie "Super Size Me". It's graphic but I belive it tells the truth.
Answers:
We eat these things because somewhere in our brains is a trigger that says "ohhhhh, that tastes good, MORE!"
I have seen the movie. Its ok.
But have you ever noticed how many people in the medical field (those who should know better) are obese and/or smoke.
Oh and by the way.I weighed 200 pounds when I started working at Mcdonalds and I now weigh around 125 pounds.I was eating there at a minimum of five days a week.

BECAUSE IT TASTES SO DA** GOOD
Some people are actually addicted to food
because the food tastes good and they give in to these temptations too easily.
Stress and a reward
indulging bad habits.
Because they have no self-control, and no motivation.
I've noticed that alot of such people have low-self esteem to the point that they feel like nothing they can do will improve themselves in any way, and they might as well give up and binge eat.
Sad. Everyone can be improved. Even if it's just the way you carry yourself, you would be surprised how much better about yourself it will make you feel.
Because they have addictions and food issues. Even though in your mind and heart, you know it is bad, some people actually can't help themselves.
For some people food is the only source of happiness because it produces the same satisfaction hormones as every addictions does.
By the way: FAT is a way of disk formatting
If you eat McDonald's food everyday for every meal, of course it will be detrimental to your health. If you eat it in moderation, maybe once a week, then you should be fine. It all depends on your own body.
Quick and easy. People are too lazy to think out their own meal- it's way easier to just go and get something that is made for you in like two minutes, compared to something that can take half an hour to make!
Why do people smoke, drink too much, or do drugs? Why do people have unprotected sex? Why do they drive to fast?
There is no answer to why! We are all just fallen people living in a fallen world. We strive to do our best but come up short. We are looking to fill what is void inside of us.
Most "fattening" foods are also loaded with ingredients that actually cause us to crave them. Hydrogenated oils, high-fructose corn syrup, refined grains are all addicting substances. I think some people are more prone to be addicted than others.
The fact is we're all doing something that isn't good for us. Whether we worry too much or talk on our cell phone while we drive, we all engage in dangerous behavior to one degree or another.
So, before you go trying to pick the sawdust out of someone else's eye, be sure to get your own 2x4 out of the way. :-)
You bring up 2 interesting points.The first, being food.If food wasn't meant to taste good, we never would have discovered spices with which to add flavor to the food.Second is weight issues.I know America has an obesity problem, but it also has a society that promotes eating disorders.I saw the saddest thing last night.It was an infomercial for a weight loss thing and one of the people was bragging about being a size 10, and going down to a size 4.The girl looked better at a size 10,let me tell ya!There was nothing wrong with anyone being a size 10 unless they're 4'6"!I think the obesity prob has to do with people subconsciously rejecting the toothpick stereotype by going to the opposite end of the spectrum.Some people just need to learn moderation.
I eat much when i feel depressed . i go to Mc Donalds to give myself a reward
Because forbidden things taste better than things allowed. The body is made of fats and proteins, we cannot repair ourselves without them. the body is greedy for it's own self actuallizing system.. like the government . it wants to exist and grow bigger so it creates it's own means of mass production and protection even at the expense of it's own environemt and social system in order to maintain the power it perceives it needs inorder to stay alive and grow and protect itself in a hurting, painful world. a viscious cycle, self perpetuating it's own dis-ease. like sin. which inturns makes it want to protect itself from itself.. and so it consumes deadly things in an effort to rid it self of itself. besides, it's liscious. yummy. girls love the bad guy and boys want the bad girl. the good boys and girls often get a handshake, not a kiss. it goes for governments and food and a whole lot of other stuff in life.. Gluttony is a sin in all it's forms. people loved sin amore than righteousness and crucified Jesus rather than change.. hmmmm.. go figure

There are so many reasons.
It's cheap. It's fast. They don't know how to make better choices. They have self-hatred. They don't care. They are addicted.
