My BMI is 63.06 obese class 3 morbid obesity my body fat is 84 %. This means I carry 296 lbs of body fat, this is all according to my doctor and of course he didn’t cease to remind me that I have gained 226 pounds in the past 26 months I was July 2020 I weighed 130 pounds.

He wasn’t mad it was more a shock to everyone about how fat I had gotten. I try to hide it really well when im with family.

I prefer mocking humiliating comments like how did you get so damn fat?

For my Dad’s birthday, my brother bought him this high tech beach chair that he can also use sitting out by the pool. So everyone was trying it out…all my nieces and nephew etc. and I had a strong feeling I shouldn’t but everyone said to try it. So I did and the second I lowered myself down to sit in it nor only did the entire seat canvas part rip and break but the heavy fall made my already skin tight pants blow the button right off and then the zipper came down and my huge belly that I try so hard to hide from my family tumbled out. Then, to make matters worse, I couldn’t get up. My belly is so huge and the belly rolls so immense that it’s difficult to even lean forward.
It was extremely embarrassing to say the least and nobody could pull me up so I had to turn my body around so my belly was facing the ground and push my self up with my hands. Then once I got up my soft cascading and jiggly belly was on complete display as I tried in vain to zip it up. My 6 year old niece said our loud how did you get so fat auntie? And this is going on as I’m trying to stuff my fat rolls into my pants to hide it, but since the buttons had shot off it was hard to keep the pants up, plus we had just eaten dinner and the ice cream cake which I had 3 huge pieces so I was full as fuck anyway. In the end nobody really mentioned it but for the rest of the night I had to sit with my belly hanging out because the zipper would only go halfway up and when I sat down it wound come all the way down too.plus the shirt I had on was tight bc I have gained so much weight so quickly that I have no clothes that fit. So the rest of the night my belly was on display and my 6 year old niece kept trying to play with it. It was a nightmare. Anyone else have a situation like this happen?

I can feel my huge belly jiggling and slapping my thighs with every step. I remember when I first noticed it and then I looked in the mirror and saw that even just standing straight up my belly hangs well over my thighs.
So many fat rolls form, especially my lower one is so thick it gets in the way of everything.

After giving this topic some thought, yes college attendees today are indeed heavier than their counterparts from prior generations. But has anyone noticed those in their early-20s becoming fatter in general?
Many cashiers and other workers in my local Dollar Tree, Stop&Shop, and Walmart for example are young but not likely to be college students. This much I deduced from seeing them at work when class would be in session. They seem much heavier than their predecessors from about 20 years ago.
This makes me wonder if college attendance is simply coincidental to weight gain. Could the real culprits be a combination of factors such as poor diet, antidepressant use, video games, and social media?
Also cigarette use is down significantly among this demographic. Nicotine being a stimulant often helped keep the weight off.
I love your comments. They’re always well thought out and extremely intelligent. After Tom Brady, you are my favorite

I mean, they may be in class. Online, weekend, and night classes are also options. There's also Summer classes, accelerated classes, ect. So, that alone isn't the best way to judge if they are students or not.
That being said, you are probably right about the reasons. But also high levels of stress, the inability to buy quality food, not having the time or the energy to exercise, etc.
The reasons are about as long as my arm.
Not having the time or the energy to exercise is one of the biggest myths that people actually believe…. For one it’s a choice if exercises important to you you make time for it and two while initially it is tiring to exercise exercise gives you energy. But I agree with you about the inability to buy quality food and probably being raised on processed food like so many people these days and then get addicted to the sugar etc. but I think when you have the college experience of being away from home for the first time away from your parents telling you what to do and making your meals and then you have usually the dining hall especially your freshman year when you live on campus and the dining hall is right there and you can eat anything and everything you want I think that Contributes immensely to college weight gain Plus we cannot count out the large amount of drinking that goes on in college. That in itself is responsible for a shit load of calories
