The same reason other people of other countries gain so much weight as obesity is global and happens in many nations contrary to popular belief, not just the US.

Some do not put as much emphasis on their diets and how much they consume in the day, nor do they put enough emphasis on what they consume and what kind of exercise will be necessary. Some simply don't have the time to do a lot of these things, so they go with quick and easy food that can be very fattening when not eaten in moderation.

Does gaining weight feel like being pregnant?

No. Gaining weight is a slow process that gives your body enough time to adapt, so you actually won't notice it until you've gained so much weight that you can't avoid realising it. Pregnancy on the other hand is a comparably quick and noticeable growth, and the weight gained is concentrated in a single spot instead of around the whole body.


If you are gaining weight but losing fat is that ok?

Yes. If you are working out and gaining muscle tone, then it is reasonable that you may gain a little weight (a few pounds) or not lose as much weight as you normally would have if you were just losing "fat" weight. It is good that you are losing fat! In addition, you may be putting on some water weight as your body adjusts. This will go away completely within a few weeks or so. If this is not the case, and you are losing "fat" but still gaining weight, you may want to see a nutritionist or doctor to find out why that would be happening. Absent of that, there is nothing wrong with gaining a few pounds of muscle as you lose fat.
