do you believe naturally thin people?

i am someone with a thin frame and i can say that i don't starve myself. i eat enough. but the thing is, what's enough for me is not enough for anyone else at all. (i think i have a small stomach?) like even if thin people say that they eat a lot, their "a lot" is not equivalent to others "a lot" imo. so i don't think there's naturally thin people who eat a lot but don't gain weight, just people with less appetite and people that get full by less food.

this is why i laugh when people say "my unnie doesn't starve! she's eats A LOT!" lol no, no she doesn't (even if she doesn't starve herself). gaining weight works by a very simple principle. eating more calories than you burn = weight gain. simple. the unnie in question is probably used to getting full by eating less food.

I'm the type that hard to gain weight, maybe I also have a small stomach? No matter how full I eat every day, gaining just 1KG is hard for me.

me too, but i can't act like i eat more than others i just feel sick after a while

Quote from haoluvr

I am naturally thin also but I gain weight easy (recently, I used to NEVER gain weight) and idc. I dont care about my weight Im gonna die from diabetes anyway either way it goes. How do I know that? All of my family has had diabetes by genetics, so its safe to assume I have a risk of getting it. So the concern of health problems doesnt bother me that much. Its just whatever for me

omg i hope that doesn't happen, hope your family is well

Your point it very valid but some people naturally have higher metabolisms compared to other family members, despite doing the same sport and eating the same food.And yes i do think most of the time they may not eat a lot or eat multiple meals but in smaller portions. of course habits play a part. But i know people and my family who 1000000% are naturally thin even being pregnant didn't make them gain weight at most one size. It is crazy

But of course lifestyle plays a role, there are vegans who wouldn't be considered thin depsite their healthy lifestyle. Metabolism is crazy

tbh i just don't think there's a huge difference between healthy people's metabolisms. i observed other thin people and even though they claim to love food, i realized that even with their favorite foods they eat less than others

Quote from Valenttinna

Yes, my bestfriend is the skinniest person i know and she eats mc donalds every weekend

i am reeally skinny too and i eat fast food 4-5 times a week lmao, but my other meals aren't that big bc when i eat mcdonalds it fills me up for the whole day

Quote from sleeplessnights

I am very thin as well. I have hard time to gain weight although I don't lose weight fast as well. My weight is just stable.

Usually I don't eat more than I need. Sometimes people may think I eat a lot because I can finish 1 or two whole pizzas. However, I skip breakfast and don't snack much.

yeahh same i eat 1 big meal (like a whole pizza) and i usually don't eat any other meal, maybe like a small sandwich or soup. bc my stomach can't handle it lol. and i don't ever eat snacks bc i don't crave them

i love how thin people are being exposed
