“Is obesity genetic?”

Yes, obesity is very much genetic. Thousands of years of a blueprint of survival is passed on. Those of us that gain and hold onto weight are the ones who survived a thousand years ago and our skinny friends wouldn't survive. However, today where we can go to the store and acquire food takes away the threat of famine, but our body is still programmed to store for survival. All of that said, we can help the body override that programming and lost the percent body fat and feel good. I battle obesity and I get it. I suggest going to the link: https://obesitymedicine.org/about/find-a-provider/

Once there, find a doctor who specializes in treating obesity, because it is a genetic disease, and get the life you want. I wish you all the success.
