[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a food as fuel person too.  Weigh 5 lbs more than my high school weight after 4 pregnancies and wear a size 4.  I have coffee for breakfast, toast with peanut butter for lunch, yogurt midday and whatever for dinner. 
Virtually no exercise over the past year but I  trying to do better there to improve muscle tone.

I would rather be the way I am with a fast metabolism and not much into food for its own sake, than struggle with losing 15-20 lbs.  Everyone in my immediate family as a child is obese in their midlife/ senior years and dealing with diabetes and high cholesterol. Strokes run though put my maternal side.  My blood work shows I have great cholesterol levels and low blood pressure, and I hope to keep it that way and stay healthy into an old age where I'm still sharp mentally.

To each their own. I'd rather have 15 or 20 pounds to lose and enjoy food.[/quote]

You can easily enjoy food and not be 15 to 20 lbs. overweight. That's a lot.[/quote]

Yes, this is true. I enjoy ALL my food. I gave up diet foods and got thin for the first time!  I enjoy whatever high fat, yummy foods I want.  The secret, I'm satisfied so I don't eat a lot.  I eat white rice and bread too.  I like them better...with real butter.  However, I was chubby in the past because I ate a lot of quantity of food and the quality (according to my taste buds) was poor.  So I ate past the point of being physically satisfied because I wasn't mentally satisfied.  I can't live by the mantra, "eat to live."  F$@# that.  Food is pleasure.  I just try to really enjoy my tasty food, and not finish everything because it is there.  I stop eating my dinner when I'm no longer really enjoying (mindless eating).  I'm a good 20lbs thinner now (though who knows what my cholesterol is!!).  Haha.[/quote]
