Obesity has a number of causes, and not everything about obesity is understood. There is a correlation between one's percentage of body fat and one's metabolic rate: all things being equal, someone with a higher metabolic rate is likely to have less body fat than someone with a lower metabolic rate. Our metabolic rate tends to decline as we age, which is one reason why older people tend to have a higher percentage of body fat than younger people. It's important to realize, however, that your metabolic rate CAN be increased by proper eating and exercising whatever your age.
