Why are so many authors overweight?

[(Anonymous)]

Or, why are so few authors slim/thin?

This is not trolling, I'm just curious to hear what you guys think.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

[(Anonymous)]

I think you are trolling, actually.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

Because their overweight parents weren't sterilized before they gave birth, obvs.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

Obesity isn't genetic. Lifestyle, on the other hand, is.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

[(Anonymous)]

Except... genetics do play a role in obesity? It's not usually the sole contributing factor, but to say it doesn't at all is a lie.

This. There are so many things that play a role. It is not really cut and dry. Medication can cause weight gain. Mental illness can cause weight gain. Some physical ailments cause weight gain. And yes, genetics can play a part.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

They have to eat other writers to take their creativity and make it their own. So, if they're in America, we're already a fluffy country, so the cannibalizing of persons with more than average amounts of subcutaneous fat compared to the global population combined with a sedentary profession equals a group of people who are generally more overweight.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

[(Anonymous)]

The alcoholism probably doesn't help.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

[(Anonymous)]

Excuse you, it's my day job that encourages my drinking, not my writing.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

[greghousesgf]

there are a lot of skinny alcoholics.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

[(Anonymous)]

Because it's hard to write and jog at the same time.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

[(Anonymous)]

What data are you looking at? If it's American or British authors, probably because most Americans and Brits are overweight these days regardless of whether or not they are authors.

Re: Why are so many authors overweight?

[(Anonymous)]

I admit, I have thought something like this before. In my case, it's usually when I see a picture of an author for the first time. I'm always surprised if they're overweight, and then it's like, "Hmmm, this seems to happen a lot."
