How many are blessed with great body type genes by both parents?

Both of my parents aren't fat at all. So I really don't have a problem ever being a fat person. The most I'll get is a tummy pooch, and that's it. Anyway, are you the same way. Are both of your parents ';Not Fat';? Is majority of your family not fat? This believe it or not determines how easy you have to work to burn fat, weight loss, and getting into the body shape that you've always wanted. Did you know this? Also Are both of your parents in good shape?How many are blessed with great body type genes by both parents?
My mom's side of the family isn't fat but can gain weight if they don't eat healthy they can gain weight. %26amp; my dad's side of the family is skinny when they're young they're skinny, but when they hit about age 15-16 the men get muscular %26amp; the women get really curvy with great bodies.





Could you please help me with mine too?:)

Both of my parents are mildly overweight. Likely in the ';overweight'; range, not quite obese (I don't know their weights exactly, just going by appearance and guesses)... Anyways, neither would be considered anywhere near slim. Likely about BMI 25-30. They wouldn't work out to save their lives. They used to about 5 years ago, but now they're both incredibly lazy.


I'm fairly average sized (bmi ~22), but working to drop just a few because I'm 5'8 %26amp; 148lbs and I'd likely to be a bit more comfortable and in shape. I mean, I don't want to be 110 or anything but around 140.


So I'm thinking I likely got both sides genes. Meaning I'll have to work to stay skinny. Ugh. I definitely got my mom's chest anyways (which actually sucks. They get in the way :( ) which makes me think I'll get everything else too. :S
Being fat has less to do with genes and more to do with lifestyle. Sure, some people weight a little more naturally but to be honest most of these people would still not be considered fat unless they led a sedentary lifestyle and became fat because of it.
My mom is extremely skinny and my dad is really muscular but I'm kinda chubby. So I guess I just defy the laws of genetics. :(
Everyone in my family is fat but me, and I hardly ever workout or watch what I eat, and I've got a 25 inch waist.
