Is it really that hard to tell those who have the motivation and inclination to stay thin? Surely the signs were there. [/quote]

DP. I suspect this is something that only becomes clearer with life experience and seeing how these things play out. I'm a woman and all my friends were thin in our 20s. We ate decently well and were perhaps, at best, moderate exercisers. In their late 30s after marriage and kids, my friends now joke about how they don't care anymore. (I don't personally think I would have pegged them as "future frumps" (if you will) when we were carefree and 23, but life is hard, you know? I think the unspoken truths are (1) they were never that into the work it takes to look good; youth was just on their side and (2) they are married and don't feel the pressure they felt when they were single.

I actually think the better tell is how much a woman generally *enjoys* beauty, fashion, eating well, and/or exercising. If it's more of a hobby, she'll probably keep it up to some degree her entire life. If she was sort of going through the motions, it'll be the first thing to drop when life gets busier/harder.
