I love your comment about choice, being healthy does have a lot to do with choice regardless of heredity or body shape. Thanks Barbara,

The next decision we can make are how to spend those calories. We should take charge of our decisions, and not let bombardments from everything we see make it for us. A general simple rule is,if you want to be 135lbs. for a woman then multiply 135x10=1350 calories allowed per day, for a man if you want to be 189 multiply 189x10=1890 calories allowed per day. Choose foods that are good for you and have plenty of vitamins and are also delicious. We choose the clothes we want to wear, we choose the car we want to drive, we choose where we want to take our vacation! We should choose what is good for us when it comes to food.
