Migrants who move to the US skinny on average gain weight, and these are people who have good eating habits and willpower. When 30% are obese and 60% overall are overweight, willpower and individual responsibility are not the tools for the job. I'd be looking at breaking up food conglomerates first personally. |

No study has been able to objectively define "willpower" in such a way that doesn't include eating habits, but does correlate with body fat percentage. IOW: If you define "willpower" as the ability to avoid obesity, then yes, it is related to obesity, but otherwise it is not.
