I had had to "luck out" and get my traits from my mom's side of the family while my brothers got my dad's. They can eat as much of whatever they want and not gain a single pound. Our natural physiques are different in the fact that they're twigs and I'm a big guy, but it certainly is annoying that their food doesn't catch up to them.
I eat much healthier then my first brother (lots of bread, carrots, juice and yogurt) while roughly 80% of what he eats is literally what he buys at the local pizza parlor and Chinese restaurant. The main key that I need is more exercise. Right now it's summer, the time of year that I spend most of my time in doors to escape the heat. But I do a lot of walking in the spring and fall.
