Bull. People are obese because the eat too much are too inactive. This is not brain surgery, people.
“It’s my metabolism!”
That’s right...
Your metabolism can’t handle all the cheeseburgers you are shoveling through it.
Did you even read the article?
Sit at a mall sometime and observe groups of people. Families tend to look alike. Very thin people tend to have certain characteristics. Fat people tend to have certain physical characteristics (beyond their weight, I mean).
When you look at all the different sizes and shapes of people, why is it so difficult to believe that weight is greatly influenced by genetics? I would submit it is because society hates fat people so much, that it is unwilling to entertain anything other than some failure on the part of the obese. I suppose no amount of science will change anyone’s mind.
BTW, I am curious. Have you ever dieted to lose weight or thought you had a weight problem?
thank you
