That makes sense. I have many of the same habits as my father, both good and bad. It's pretty remarkable how influential our parents are on us, even those that chose to consciously reject or rebel are affected by the habits of their parents. I'm glad you were able to avoid obesity, I find that like any vice healthy eating is all about avoiding situations that present bad options. Something I've been bad at of late.

I keep toiling with the idea of becoming a vegetarian. My wife is and I've dabbled in the past. Anyways, good luck to you and your mom and sister.
