Tackling a weight problem is often viewed as a personal responsibility that requires making healthier choices. The latest research, however, shows that external factorsfrom family and friendships to advertising and the workplace environmentmake an equal, if not greater, contribution. Just look at the stats: A person's chance of becoming obese increases by 57 percent if a close friend is obese, 40 percent if a sibling is obese, and 37 percent if a spouse is obese.

Thinfluence doesn't tell readers to ditch their friends and family, change jobs, or move to another state. It offers a clear three-step action plananalyze, act, influencefor readers to identify hidden factors affecting weight, develop a personal toolbox to combat external effects, and become positive influences on others around them.
