With my genetic makeup, how might there be differences in my genetic makeup that make my relationship with food and eating and weight loss different from yours?

What about in terms of this obese gene? I read in chapter two of your book that there is a gene for obesity.

And is that possible to be not just on or off, but slightly defective? So some people can just get... a little bit more hungry than others? Or is it a binary thing where it can be on or off?

So I'm thinking of some, you know, families often look quite similar in terms of body shape and size, etc., I'm wondering how much control they have against fighting against those genes to get six-pack abs. Not saying that's a sustainable, healthy place to get to, but...

Is it significantly harder for certain people if their family is maybe a little bit more larger to fight against that and get to a different state and then stay in that state?

You referenced age there. Do we get fatter with age? Because generally, I look at, you know, I'd say younger people typically have a slightly leaner physique. And then something seems to happen along the way. Is that just a false observation I have? Or is there some science that supports the gaining of weight as we age? There's science.

So on that point about the more muscles you have, the higher your metabolism. That means if I've got big muscles, then I'm burning my food faster. Yes. Fantastic news. I'm going to work out later. Lift some weights. Because I was really startled by that. After I read it in your book about... us gaining more and more weight as we age, I googled it.

And the Healthcare Research and Quality Agency said that we naturally tend to gain weight as we age to the tune of one to two pounds per year, according to their review. And that's from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. which I found quite startling.

Mate, I don't know how much choice you have. What can I do to try and stay? Because for me, it's not really about the weight thing or how you look. It's more about like, I don't know how to say this. There was this big set of stairs the other day. Really, really long set of stairs leading down to this lake. I was in Indonesia a couple of months ago.

And I remember thinking about those stairs and thinking, God, if I wasn't, you know, athletic and strong and didn't have good knees and things like that. There's no way I'd be able to get down this long winding hand carved set of Indonesian stairs so that I could go on this boat trip that I was going to go on. And I just thought about how It was a weird thing.
