I just heard this list on Good Morning America. ANd I thought, Well, I'm screwed, my parents weigh a ton!
But, I am working on it myself, and I think that's all you can do, really.

I saw that and while I agree with most, it's not all or nothing. Portion size is key. And one important one is missing....though it may have been implied in the "not sitting still one". EXERCISE.

Genetics are really, really big weight/body size factors at my house.
