[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]someone posted upthread something that has been proven by the responses to this thread.  the majority of women who are thin (thinner than average) into their 40's are either

a) genetically thin - very thin kids, family is thin etc
or
b) obsessed with keeping thin - restrictive diets, obsessive exercise etc[/quote]

Nope this is patently not true.  People outside the US are thin in their 40s and older.

Americans don't have fat genes; we just eat like pigs and don't exercise.[/quote]

obviously that comment referred to American women.[/quote]

I don't know why you say this. People in the UK are quite portly. I think something like 61 % are overweight and obese. And if you head out of Paris into the country, like into Normandy, you'll see quite a number of obese people.

I am the PP from way back who comes from a thin family and who gets full easily -- I see this all the time when I compare my mother and my behavior with other women. We just eat a lot less, not because we are dieting but because too much food makes us feel stuffed and nauseated. I really think there is a genetic component to this. [/quote]
