This is me too - and many of my friends. I eat one small meal a day, no snacking, and the rest of the day coffee, water, green tea, sparking water with lemon. I exercise five days a week. Rarely have sweets or drink alcohol- though certainly an occasional glass of wine for a special event. My splurge is an occasional square of dark chocolate.

It’s a diet I’ve maintained for the last 15 years, though I ate a little more during pregnancy adding more protein and dairy (kids all born in the 8 lbs range, no issues). It’s tough, especially because I have kids and they eat regularly as does my husband, though my husband is a healthy eater by and large. But they eat more frequently and it’s tempting. As I get older I find I’ve had to be even more restrictive with the quantity in my one small meal.

Bottom line, I’m skinny (5’ 4” and hover around 105 lbs) and my doctor has repeatedly said I’m at the perfect weight. Would say that my doctor is also very slim.

You could gain 15 pounds and still be considered the perfect weight for your height. I think both you and your doctor have disordered eating habits.

+1. I am the same height. My whole life I have been considered very thin by everyone I know, including rich and highly educated people. I haven’t weighed 105 since I was 18. At 112, I was fail thin and people commented in concern. 118 is about my “thin” weight. I am very small boned and have no boobs, so I don’t see how you could weigh 105 and be anything but skeletal at that weight. I strongly suggest you get a new doctor.

DP. And I suggest you need another doctor, one who won't feed you BS. Rail thin at 112lbs and that height? Not possible. 118lbs thin weight? Not. I am the same weight and height as you, my dear, and I am fit, so you can't BS me. I know exactly what you look like. And I just saw my Dr and discussed how I am ok weight but she understands that I would feel better if I lost 5lbs. She didn't feed me any BS. She even said that losing weight helps with breathing issues. Small boned? What absolute rubbish. The idiotic acceptance of small bones argument, and you are so wrong at it, if you were small boned(which is extremely rare) you would look even heavier at 118lbs. You just don't want to remember how good you looked and felt at 105.

I'm that height and not small boned, I wear a size 9 shoe and have big hands, my collarbones don't protrude until I'm under 110. At 105 the veins in my hip bones/shoulders/forearms gross me out. I even start to show veins over my 6 pack just below my bra line and my obliques are creepily defined. I have 14% body fat at 115 and don't feel comfortable under 115. I'm muscular and wear a size 24 jean, but there is no way any person ever would call me "fat" at 118.

Because you are not, you are healthy average weight for that height. But, you are not skinny. Average. How hard is that? When I was 105 I was not skeletal, not even close to skeletal. That is some weird crap to claim 105 lbs is skeletal at that height. As for the veins, mine protrude at 118, because I am really pale and have thin skin.

Dear god varicosity has nothing to do with the color of your skin. What’s thin skin? Like tissue paper? You’re a moron and troll fail

Which was exactly my point, but whatever you need to say, mine show up at 118 and 105 and 125lbs...no matter my fitness level.

+1. 105 is thin for that height but it’s far from skeletal. We have gotten so fat as a nation that now when someone is a normal weight we think they are skinny.

If you have always been normal weight just follow a highly nutritious diet focusing on plants, fruits, beans, seeds. Read Joel Fuhrman's books.

I have been overweight so I HAVE to use time-restricted feeding as mentioned above to keep my weight down and it likely helps with a chronic illness. Read Valter Longo.

Once you've gained 60 pounds and then lose it, you can never eat a regular amount of food again. That is just the way it is.

That's why I am very careful not to give my child hangups about food because it is so much harder to stay healthy once you gain a lot of weight EVER.

Go to the gym every day and do things you enjoy the rest of the day instead of work.
Easy to avoid the sugary foods when you’re enjoying your day not getting through it.

This whole argument is BS! Different body types people. None of us can really tell who is "skinny" without actually seeing the person.

And who wants to be skinny? Skinny is for kids who are in the midst of growing. Grown women should never be "skinny". Be healthy and fit.

Nope. What’s disordered is how being fat in America is now considered normal and being thin is considered disordered.

LOL. No. When you eat less than women in starving countries, you have an eating disorder.

A BMI of 18 is underweight. Not sure why being sick looking is anyone’s goal.

You can't argue with crazy, PP. Whole bunch of batsh*t women who think BMI of 18 is most desirable and normal BMI is "fat".
