There's no denying that heredity plays a major role in how difficult it will be for you to lose fat. However, excess bodyfat is the result of many influences. Genetics is only one of them. Heredity may be a factor that governs your rate of progress and ultimate level of development; however, most factors that affect body composition are entirely under your control. Like it or not, the primary cause of excess bodyfat is your own behavior and attitudes. NO matter what your body type or genetic potential, you can always lose fat by taking consistent action in all the areas you control.

Refuse to accept this and you'll never reach your full potential. If you have excess bodyfat, and you want to lose it permanently, the first step is to accept 100% responsibility for your circumstances.

What he meant was that we are not products of our environment or our heredity (our circumstances), instead, we are products of our own thinking and belief systems. We create our circumstances through positive thinking and positive action, and we create negative circumstances through negative thinking, lack of action and wrong actions. In other words, you are responsible for who you are, where you are, and what you have - and that includes the way your body looks. www.burnthefat.com
