Many people are turning to parents as the problem, and I do agree that to some degree parents could feed children healthier food, but at the end of the day it’s your own personal choice to not do anything about your weight or health. It’s like buying a fast car, the car has the ability to drive very quickly, but it’s your choice on whether or not to put the pedal down. It’s the same with eating. In “Don’t Blame the Eater” page 241-42, Zinczenko explains the fact the he was a latchkey kid that had an unhealthy diet. This resulted in him gaining a lot of weight, he was around 212 pounds. However, he made healthy personal choices and turned his life around, and lost weight, and became a healthy person. Some would say that this shows that he was in-fact a product of his environment, but I disagree I believe that this shows that you can in fact make positive choices in life and change your life for the better. Zinczenko could have very easily just let his unhealthy choices continue, but he used his own will power to make the right decisions and get back on a healthy lifestyle. If more people used this will power to change their life’s around then I think the world would be a much healthier place. If you apply positive choices and will power you can do anything, despite were you came from or your childhood
