If your parents are fat, you're more likely to be fat. For a variety of reasons, but some of that is genetics. I'm not overweight myself but that's because I've seen my dad and his family and my grandparents and cousins mostly have weight problems, and I know how easy it is for people in our family to gain weight. I know that the moment I stop working out or start eating poorly, my body is likely to start ballooning. It's not impossible for me to stay thin but it's going to be harder for me than most, because of genetics. --- http://fusionanomaly.net/magnoliabutitdidhappen.jpg <cite>That_Happened posted [p:882085486] in America is...

Yeah keep making excuses tubby, the fact of the matter is BMRs have a standard deviation of 140 calories, so barring legitimate medical anomalies there's no excuse for being obese. <cite>clearaflagrantj posted [p:882085875] in America is...
