[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the same age as J Lo, post-menopausal, and have not experienced middle aged spread. I weigh the same as I did in high school. 5’7” 33-25-34 112 pounds. I exercise intensely 6 days a week. In addition to exercising a lot, my job has me walking around and a lot and is not sedentary. Cook from scratch most meals and eat lots of fruits and vegetables, but am not obsessed with cutting out carbs or any food group. I don’t drink alcohol, soda, or juice, but will indulge in pastries, dark chocolate, and ice cream on occasion. I don’t count calories. I don’t take hormones. No one in my family is overweight either so genetics has something to do with it too. I am getting crows feet and losing volume in my face so I am looking into Botox and fillers though.[/quote]

You have a BMI of 17 and are underweight.  This will not serve you as well as you are thinking in the event of major stressor or illness.  Perhaps “exercising intensely” 6 days a week is doing the opposite of keeping you healthy, especially when coupled with a very particular diet.  [/quote]

NP - you sound a tad envious, and that you're trying to justify why you overeat and don't work out.  [/quote]

Lol.  I don’t know any sane person would strive for a BMI of 17. Yikes.  It isn’t a good look[/quote]

That’s because you don’t have the discipline to achieve and maintain a lower bmi. [/quote]

Can we stop glorifying eating disorders please [/quote]
