Genes

Posted Mar 10 2009 3:37pm

I’m a regular reader of Weighty Matters.  Always great reads.  Here’s a couple of excerpts from a recent post that I wanted to share:

“Now there’s no doubt whatsoever that genes affect weight, but given the fact that genes haven’t changed in the past 100 years and obesity rates have, it’s tough to suggest that if you’ve got an unlucky deck you’re fated to be fat.”

“Regardless of your genes, if you’re not eating more calories than you burn you’re not likely to gain.” 

From “ Guess What?  You’re Probably Not Fated to be Fat ” at Weighty Matters.

Read the article.  It’s good.
