I always hear all my skinny friends that eat majorly bad foods always tell me that they have a fast metabolism. It makes me sad because I fear it may be genetics and I can’t do anything about it. please tell me I am wrong.

I’ve wanted to become a doctor since I was really little, I just don’t know what kind yet and lately I’ve gotten into genetics and the probability of offspring inheriting dominant or recessive genes. Is there a type of doctor for that?

First gluttony is a sin so I find it ironic that so many religious people (especially women) are obese.
Secondly the majority of obese people do not blame themselves for their problem they blame genetics.
Last time I checked eating at fast food restaurants and sitting on the couch wasn’t a genetic predisposition.
Yes some medicine (for unrelated diseases) may cause you to become obese but I read somewhere that only 1 in 100 obese people were that way because it wasn’t their fault.
I haven’t hate at a fast food restaurant and I exercise nearly everyday. Is that because I have good genes or a strong will?
It is time health insurance companies started charging people based on the choices they make. If you choose to be fat you will be a burden on the health care system and deserve to pay more.
As a Canadian our health care (tax dollars) pay for fat people to have surgery. It costs 38$ thousand dollars.
FAT PEOPLE NEED SOME TOUGH LOVE NOT SYMPATHY.

Im asking this question because Im already a father of 6 boys. My twin sister and only sister has 4 boys and 2 girls and my wife’s younger and only sister also just gave birth to first child which was also a boy.
Is there any kind of relationship between your genetics and the gender of the kids you have? Is it possible that genetics can increase or decrease the chances of you having a boy or a girl? Im done with kids but Im just asking because Im interested because most of the children on both sides of my family and my family are all boys. I have only two nieces. Is it something that runs in the family or is it just random?

I heard that everyone is different as to how much body fat that they can burn regardless of how hard they workout, cardio, dieting with the combination of all 3 because of genetics. Is this true?
