Dieting Myths ... Busted: Skinny Genes?

If you believe that your genes determine your weight and there is no way to change it, think again.

While genes play a role (say play, seize your MOM body type), for most people, the most important factor when it comes to weight is how many calories you consume and how much exercise you regularly.

Even if your parents both were heavy, there are things you can do to avoid the same fate: a lot of activity and strength training can both help you boost your metabolism and build muscle. and the more muscle you have, the more calories you'll burn even when you are not actively making it easier to stay slim regardless of your family weight problems!
