deodorants- some deodorants contain chemicals that can disrupt your normal metabolism making you more likely to gain weight...you should avoid deodorants that contain the ingredient aluminum or sprays whith polychlorides
temperature- air conditioining in the summer and heating in the winter....may make you fatter. you can increase your calorie-burning motors by lowering the temperature in the room in the winter or raising it in the summer.

your mom-the older she was when she gave birth to you, the more likely you are to be fatter
