[QUOTE="jpscloud, post: 2141231, member: 232698"] "The report stated: "Obesity is not simply down to an individual's lack of willpower. The people who are most likely to be an unhealthy weight are those who have a high genetic risk of developing obesity and whose lives are also shaped by work, school and social environments that promote overeating and inactivity." Ok this bit has some value, but the link also needs to be made to the proliferation and normalisation of snacking on sugar - I would lapse less if it wasn't shoved in my face by advertising and presented to me on pain of social disapproval at work (coffee mornings, birthdays etc).
