My personal views aren't that harsh, but I agree that it is mostly the fault of the person to be overweight. It basically does simply come down to how much you eat, mostly how much you eat on a regular basis - past and presently.
Yes, some people may be at a larger risk for becoming overweight, but that just means that those people should try to regulate the amount of food they eat on a regular basis. Also, it says 16% of the population are at risk, yet in the United States you have around 32% of the population obese, and over 60% overweight.
Basically, it is another excuse for the person to blame someone else, not him or herself.
