My aupair gained 15 lbs her 1st 3 months here. There is something wrong with our food in the US. She lost it when she lived home without trying,

it's stress-eating and lack of sleep and minimal free time induced by employer

It’s absolutely genetics. I had a best friend growing up-who I was friends with since K. She ate constantly and was always tall and skinny. We played the same sports (on the same teams) so had a very similar activity level. I had to be very careful with what I ate from a very young age-I was definitely chubby. I eventually figured it out and just realized I just couldn’t eat freely like other people and had to make conscious decisions but she always ate the same. We are still friends as adults and although her body changed somewhat-she is still skinny even though she still eats like crap. It’s genetics. Some people just get lucky like that. And it’s always interesting that they are the same people who come at overweight people about how they are lazy, eating junk etc…all while they themselves are stuffing a candy bar in their mouth. Skinny people are never judged when they eat crap.

That’s why body positivity makes sense. Just celebrate the genetics you have and enjoy life.
