[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't mean to diminish the hard work of a lot of people who eat well and exercise hard to achieve thinness, but OP, a lot of it is just how you're born. I've always been thin -- was made fun of as an adolescent for how skinny I was -- and really it's metabolism. Otherwise, I fidget naturally, and I walk a lot.
But there are women I work with who kick my ass -- run marathons, do the tough mudder -- and might look from the outside like they're overweight. A lot of it is genes.[/quote]

I have friends who exercise a lot and still are a bit overweight.  They simply eat too much and drink too much wine. [/quote]

I'm one of those people.  I LOVE exercise and I do it hard 5-6 times a week.  I also like food, though not that much - I just prefer not to obsess over every piece of bread or kid's french fry that goes into my mouth.  I like wine, too.  And if you judge me because I look fit and healthy as a size 8-10, that's on you.  I feel great.

FWIW I agree with the poster upthread who said that most people who are very thin as adults fall into one of two categories: 1) naturally small, whole family is small, etc or 2) obsess over food and exercise.  Keep in mind I'm referring to very slim people, not average sized people.[/quote]
