From little acorns mighty oaks do grow.

We all start out about the same size - give or take a few ounces or pounds. As we grow and mature, we gain
height and weight. Some of us grow faster than others. Although we start out
as little acorns, we grow into mighty oaks - some of us mightier than
others.
Once we reach adulthood and the height-factor takes a vacation (he'll return as we age so please don't feel sorry for him...), some of us continue to grow outward rather than upward. This is due in part to taking in the amount of energy that we did during our Growing Season. It's one reason that the Overweight Factor rears its ugly head during Stage-Twenty and again when we reach 'Middle Age' and 'Senior Age'.
Keep in mind that a cup of flour turns into a four-headed Yeast Beast with the addition of a single ingredient - yeast - BUT flour doesn't become a beast on its own. On that note, work hard to make your daily diet a healthy daily diet that will last until there's snow on the roof and a blazing fire in the furnace. Good food. Good health. Long life.
And along your Life's Journey keep in mind that the further along Life's Trail that you advance, the less calories that your body may require. Adjust your sails (calories and activity level) to ensure a smooth journey.
