[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not super-thin PP, but what many people don't want to admit is that we actually don't need very much food to survive, especially after we age. A small-framed person could easily get by on 1400 calories per day.[/quote]

This.  I don’t think most people understand how little food we require.

I’m thin and my overweight friends would likely say it’s genetic.  The truth is that I eat less.  I’ve never known anyone who is overweight who does NOT eat a good bit more than I do.  However they likely think we eat a similar amount.

For example if I go out to dinner with friends, I don’t eat much the evening before.  I likely don’t order fries or only eat half my entree.  It’s the little bit more than they eat at every meal that is resulting in the higher weight.

Yes. Totally agree. I cannot believe the volume of food overweight people eat. Multiple times per day. My stomach could not handle that amount of food. I think heavy people don’t realize their portion sizes are out of control, especially if they are only eating with obese people. [/quote]
