But maybe for him, a lot of his eating habits were linked to the fact that he was playing so many video games. I tend to snack a lot (and I mean A LOT) when I study for tests. I don't know why, but it's just habit. Am I saying that the nasty Freshman 15 is to be blamed on difficult midterms? No, but it is a factor. And I really don't think he's trying to pass the buck. I've heard this guy speak before, and he always admitted that he had very unhealthy eating habits and that this was his fault. His pompous attitude that I dislike comes from the fact that he seems to look down on people who can't lose an incredible amount of weight like he did.

It always annoys me when gamers get up in arms anytime anything bad is linked to video games. My younger cousins never play outside anymore now that they have gameboys. I literally have to drag them kicking and screaming to the park to get some damn exercise into their day. Anyone who can look me in the face and tell me that those kids haven't been negatively influenced by having those gameboys is in major denial.

Bert, maybe not for you, but for a lot of people laziness does contribute to obesity.
