Are you fat? Were you breastfed? *edited*

Just curious...
***i just ask because my sis who was ff'd is very obese with many health problems. My husband is also obese and was ff'd but more importantly, over fed to stay quiet. His mom put rice cereal in his bottles starting at 1 wk because she wanted her sleep and had 3 other kids to take care of.
She started giving him solids at 3mo and always gave him double portions. My husband can say that he can remember always feeling hungry and is struggling to lose weight.
I was just wondering what other women had to say. I don't feel the formula made him obese but instead the shitty parenting on his mom's part.
Nope.. I'm thin...
Nope...formula fed
Yes- genetic heart condition and Rheumatiod Arthritis that I was diagnosed with at the age of 5..I'm 37 now and a long distance runner so I don't let any of it bother me.
Both my brother and I were exclusively formula fed. Neither of us have ever been overweight. He does have allergies - but they are the exact same ones my dad has (and my dad was breastfed - back in the 20's). No other health problems for either of us. I'm 56, and he's 48. My husband was also formula fed - no allergies or any health problems - not overweight.
My kids (30, 22, 19, and 17) were also exclusively formula fed. None are or have been overweight. None have health problems at all.
Yes, I was breastfed.
I have no allergies or health problems.
I'm overweight yes, I was formula fed and no medical problems.
I was breastfed for 3 months. I am overweight but that didn't occur until adulthood. I don't think breastfeeding has ties to adult obesity,but that is just my opinion.
Dh is overweight and was bf for 2 yrs
We are both healthy but I get colds a lot. He gets really sick like once a year
Being fat I MY fault, not th way my momma fed me.
