While genes do play a role (say, inheriting your mom's body type), for most people, the most important factor when it comes to weight is how many calories you consume and how much exercise you regularly get.
Even if your parents were both heavy, there are things you can do to avoid the same fate: Plenty of activity and strength training can both help you boost your metabolism and build muscle. And the more muscle you have, the more calories you'll burn even when you're not active making it easier to stay slim regardless of your family's weight issues!
