Mr_rob, ultimately it all comes down to metabolism; afterall, that's the whole point of food: to be broke down into fuel the body can use. Different people metabolize food at different rates, and the enzymes involved in metabolism are coded by genes. So basically different people can eat the same thing, yet it's broken down differently. For example, there are people who eat alot and gain no weight because they have high metabolism rates and vice versa.
So weight is not only to do with eating and exercising. There is a hereditary component! Go research it if u don't believe me.
Oh and here's another thing, it also depends on the portions eaten. It's better to eat 3 small portions throughout the day, rather than only one big portion cause it gives the body time to break-down. I guess that explains why the French are skinny lol.
