[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree with pp who said that this proves it is just genetic being slim.
I think the idea of eating as much as you want and whatever you want is very different for slim and overweight people.

Np. I think that's probably true. I am 117, 5'3, and 44. I do not calorie count. I work out 45-60 mins/day and I am vegetarian. I unintentionally intermittent fast, but I do eat 3-4 meals usually between 12 and 8. I find I get nauseous if I eat in the morning and feel bloated if I eat late (I think the latter is because I go to bed by 9:30). We rarely eat out.

After seeing this thread, out of curiosity I counted up my calories yesterday. I realized I only get 1400-1500 calories probably (total surprise to me) despite snacking a lot. It just turns out *what* I snack on is fairly low cal.

Some of this might be genetic but also I wonder how much are just habits you learn growing up - which may work for or against you. My parents never ate breakfast or ate late at night also. They never ate out. Our dessert growing up was just fruit.  [/quote]
