[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So--it goes beyond being 'thin/skinny'.  I am very athletic, fit and trim.  But --I have muscles.

My mom and I talk about the 'WASP' bones.  The waspy women we know (me in Georgetown), her growing up in Greenwich, CT have very tiny, petite bones---even if they are very tall.  Their body frames are all very tiny.  They have those pencil, skinny legs in their cigarette pants and teeny, tiny little wrists.

No matter how much I dieted, I could never be skinny-boned:).  We have peasant-stock body frames.  Thick bones, large wrists and hands, big heads.  BUT--we don't get hunched over with age, retain a youthful round face in older age, and those strong bones aren't brittle and we don't get hunched over or osteoporosis like a lot of that tiny wasp crowd:).

So--babe, you are born with it.  But, the good news, most men hate that skinny, bird look.  My own husband despises it.  He thinks they look like anorexic, smokers.  Every time I drop a lot of weight, he tells me to eat.  Women I would point out as attractive he thinks are too skinny or skeletor.

So you could starve yourself and get the bad bulimic breath a lot of them have and live on coffee, cocaine/Adderall and cigarettes or you could strive for a healthy, glowing, athletic look which might be more your natural type.[/quote]

+1 I think that's right - it's like all these questions asking how you stay looking young, or how you get good skin. The answer is that you have the genes for it.

I grew up with a lot of those WASPy types. They just have tiny figures - even the tall ones. Some were very good athletes, too - tennis, running, lacrosse, whatever - and they stayed teeny. Me, all I have to do is look at someone doing a push up and my arms get bulky. Being that kind of rich skinny just wasn't happening for me - I'm short and I'm curvy, even when I am at my thinnest.
