[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My wealthy aunt is still very fit compared to my mom, her poorer sister. For those two, I think it’s because my aunt hasn’t worked a job since her mid 20s. She has plenty of time to exercise, could always afford  trainer if she wanted one, had a pool to swim laps in.

My single working mom never had time or money to belong to a gym. She cooks and eats healthy but never got “fit” so didn’t build the muscle mass to help with her metabolism.[/quote]

This is interesting. I always figured it was harder for nonworking people to stay thin because they have much more time to sit around and think about what to eat, and then eat it.

I've always made staying slim a priority, rich or poor. I didn't grow up wealthy but I am now (HHI 7 figures). When I was in my 20s and childless, I walked a lot to stay slim. Walking is free! And I had all the time in the world to do it. Now that I've got a house full of kids in addition to my busy career, I get my workouts in at 5 AM at a gym, where I take classes 4x/week. It's usually painful to wake up that early, but I gotta do it. My parents are seriously fatphobic (despite not being wealthy) and drummed that into me growing up. There seemed to be no worse quality to them than being overweight, and both of them, now in their 70s, still look really good, still exercise, eat relatively well, still able to be quite active with traveling, walking around all day at events, etc. Honestly, I resented this about them when I was young, and I still wonder what it would have been like to have had parents love me no matter my size. I definitely felt scorn from them when I gained some weight as a college freshman, and 30 years later, I remember that vividly. But, hey, as a parent now, I really want my kids to be slim also. Life is better for thin people. You're treated better. You're healthier. You feel better. You look better. Of course I want that for my children.[/quote]
