[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm one of these women who can be considered naturally slim. I'm 5'7, size 2, 34yo , have 2 kids. 
I don't know how much I weigh because I don't own a scale, never did. I have an old jeans from HS I use to make sure I'm in my normal weight. 
I only do Pilates and Yoga.

I eat what I want but I really don't eat that much. My whole family is thin but they also are not a a big eaters. 
These are my way to stay slim:
1. I really don't like a lot of fattening stuff: I don't like sweets, cakes or bread. I prefer vegetables and meat. I don't like soda. 
2. I'm not that hungry most of the time and can be sated with a little piece of something. I will eat pizza if I want to but can't really deal with more than one slice. 
3. My dad is a great cook and I grew up eating great homemade meals and never ate processed food. As of today, I find most processed food uneatable. 
4. I don't eat breakfast. 
5. I tend to forget to eat and can't eat when stressed.

I really can't tell though whether I'm thin because I eat that way or I eat that way because I'm thin and don't really need lots of food.[/quote]

I'm like you in many ways. I am 5'6" and about 120 lbs. Probably a 2. Skinny legs etc, thighs don't touch. When I was a teen, I was SUPER skinny but at 42 I am just normal thin.

I eat what I want, but like others said, that's not that much! I never finish a whole meal at a restaurant etc. I also grew up not eating processed foods and I find most of them really gross. I am just grossed out by fast food, walking into a fast food restaurant makes me ill because of the smell.. I do eat breakfast, in fact I pretty much graze all day.

I think the most important thing is that I hate feeling full, so I never eat one big meal. If I eat too much I feel really gross and sick, so I rarely eat a lot in one sitting.

But I also pretty much never exercise, although I do like to go for superlong walks, I am not a gym person at all.

I attribute 90 percent of this to genetics -- my mom is the same way and I am watching my daughter become the same too.[/quote]
