I’m “genetically predisposed” if you look at my grandmothers and my mother. My mom gained a lot of weight in her 40s and beyond, and my grandmothers did as well, although one I believe tended to be heavy from a younger age. Many of the women in my family in my grandparents’ generation were overweight.

My two sisters and I (ages range from 42 to 50) all weigh around 120 – 125. While we could sit around eating whatever looks yummy, we’ve chosen to eat healthy food, exercise and take care of our health. Anyone can do it!

Everyone should be required to watch The Biggest Loser as last night first episode was an eye opening. Not so much the contestants, but all the people who came out to support them were in a big(pun intended) need of the show as well. In every city from coast to coast, we of normal weight will soon be in the minority.

Now that is scary and sad.

Thanks for the reminder. Yes, it does bear repeating, as a lot of people still don’t equate lack of exercise with weight gain.
