Only you can decide if you will gain the weight or not.
Even if you're genetically predisposed for late-life weight gain you do not have to accept it. It's one of the things you can take charge of yourself and control.
For example one woman I know... her family has a history of heart disease and early death due to obesity. She made a point of refusing to follow their paths and took control of her physical health. She's already lived longer than her ancestors did; they died somewhere in their 50s while she's still kicking around closer to 60 and expects to live longer still.
if you're worried, talk to your doctor about what plan will work best for you. :)
Will I get the same weight gain as my father?
