Is your work place making you fat? Are you slowly gaining weight but you're not sure how? Find out if your career could be making you chunky.

It's fascinating to see just how fat my job is making me. It's also kind of a bummer. I really think work is making me big and I'm not alone. According to a new article from PR Newswire, over half of the workers in the United States blame their work for being over weight. I've got to say, I don't disagree with them.

In the work place, sugar and snacks are almost unavoidable. The free food, celebrations and eating out combined with just sitting down for long periods of time are a bad mix.

Not to mention by the time you leave work you're usually too tired to work out.

Below are a list of things at work that could make you fat. How many of these do you partake in?

  • Sitting at a desk
  • Too tired to exercise after work
  • Too tired to exercise before work
  • Stress eating
  • Eating out for lunch
  • Skipping meals
  • Parties at work... usually with cake
  • Treats a co worker brings in
  • Office happy hour (4 percent)
