[quote=Anonymous]My mother in law was born during WW2 in Europe, was somewhat malnourished as a child and lived in Europe until her mid-20s. She was already overweight despite eating minimally-processed and small quantities of healthy foods. She has a number of friends her age who are also "overweight" who are also healthy older adults. Despite her weight she has lived for 80 years in full health, she was an athletic person and still walks several miles outdoors every day. So yes, I believe that there are a variety of healthy bodies. So yes, there are plenty of different types of bodies and many of them can be healthy. And you're assuming that all bodies process foods in the same ways - this is simply not true. A family with multiple members can all eat the same food, even in the same quantities and end up varying sizes.[/quote]
