I think genetics mean a lot if we talk about weight. The most part of my relatives from my mother's side are big, I think this is why I tend to be big, too. My sister is the same. I look at some of my girlfriends who already have babies, many of them eat everything and they don't exersice at all and they are OK having no cellulite or other problems!
I have to be very strict with myself, be on a diet, exercise several times a week to be in a fit. If I stop I am getting big immediately.
The lifestyle, eating habbits, exercises are very important! All this stuff works even if you tend to be big. Unfortunately some people have to work much harder than the others to be in a good shape. But it is what it is, we have no choice
By the way having no food after 6pm works very well. Plus having less sugars and sweets, if you want some too bad eat them befor 12am. This works very well for me!
