[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would agree that women tend to be heavier now, but it's important not to dismiss the serious food and size issues many women had in the 60s and 70s. Women frequently smoked, took meth diet pills, and abused diuretics and laxatives to stay thin. My mother, who has had an eating disorder since adolescence, says she took diuretics her whole pregnancy so her doctor wouldn't yell at her for gaining weight. She was underweight and told to gain only 15 pounds with pregnancy. We definitely all eat too much now, but don't underestimate how screwed up earlier generations were.[/quote] I actually think the smoking is key, for both men and women.[/quote] ah! which explains why the french and chinese are so skinny too!! :lol: [/quote]
