Some people can eat really a lot and still stay thin. Other people can hardly eat at all without putting on weight. Genes DO have some influence. But they're not the only reason people get fat, there are other reasons that contribute and have a lot more to do with why people are fat, but some people just like using such easy excuses instead of focusing on the real problem.

Actually, you are wrong to a certain degree. I have a masters in nursing and it is a scientifically(have to use that word it seems so important to so many people on this site) proven fact that genetics plays a role in most all conditions that a person has. some people who are obese have a genetic predisposition to being that way. Some people are obese because they eat too much and don't exercise enough to burn the calories.
If you have ever been to the doctor or in the hospital the first thing on the intake info is your family history. That is done because it is so important to know what you are genetically predisposed to.
Have a nice day.

Actually, it's not bull. Most fat people do have a genetic link to obesity, but it doesn't mean they have to be fat. The vast majority of obese people can control their weight if they'll just try. If you're fat because you're lazy and you overeat - then that's another story.

Genetics DOES play a role, but fat people use it as a scapegoat even though it can be controlled.

Because it's easier than blaming themselves. "I gotta keep the virus at bay!"
