[quote=Anonymous]I am skinny but it is not genetic.  If I ate like a regular person, I would no doubt gain weight because of my genetics.  It is 100% a choice and a commitment to keep my weight at a certain level.  If I didn't watch what I eat and exercise, I would be 10 pounds heavier.

My diet is based on low glycemic fruits (any kind of berry), tons of vegetables and salad greens (5-6 servings a day), nuts, chia seeds, homemade popcorn, meats (chicken, beef, pork, shrimp), olive oil, and dairy (plain yogurt, cheese, eggs, cream for my coffee).  I don't touch soda, juice, bread, sugar, or high glycemic foods.  I rarely drink. I will gain weight quickly if I drink alcohol. When I want something sweet, I eat a square of dark chocolate.  If I eat low glycemic foods, I can control my hunger.

I also don't eat after 7pm.  I try to fast for 12-14 hours overnight before having a meal.

I exercise for 60+ minutes 5-6 days a week.

I simply do not like the way I look when I am heavier and don't like the way it makes me feel.  I am a better parent, spouse, friend, and colleague when I take care of myself, eat healthy, and exercise. [/quote]
