		<description>People are always complaining about having to go to the gym or how fat they think they are, but that can easily be avoided. It's exactly true that the late night snacks and large portions are the largest contributors to being overweight. Back at home our high school football coach would tell his players to have a late night snack of a peanut butter sandwich and a milkshake to gain more weight. Late night snacks really add to the weight gain. The comment about smaller portions is completely right! You don't need to eat to the point that you feel extremely full and "eat yourself into a coma." Smaller portions could keep your weight steady instead of fluctuating. There would be no need for "punishing" yourself by going to the gym because of the binge eating. Honestly i really think some Americans are lazy. I mean i know i have my lazy moments, but i live on the fifth floor of my dorm and i try to take the stairs as much as possible. The walking up stairs could make that much of a difference in your weight gain.</description>
