"Yeah, I’m watching it. I can eat what I like and don’t seem to be able to put on weight, I’ve been trying to put on a stone but it’s not happening, " Did you find it interesting? And did you find certain things ring some truths with you? | |||
"Yeah, I’m watching it. I can eat what I like and don’t seem to be able to put on weight, I’ve been trying to put on a stone but it’s not happening, " I'm the same. I'm keeping my weight on with mass building powders and changing my diet (again) and so far so good

"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? " Good point | |||

"I feel when I was in my twenties, I was at least a stone heavier on average, I do watch what I eat but not religiously in anyway, I just get bored with food, and feel full up quite quickly. How did I manage eat 3 chocolate bars a night I have no idea! (maybe just on a weekend) lol "As long as you 80/20 your food you will be healthy and not starving yourself but eating when hungry. Got to have some cheat meal every now and again. Couple movement or exercise to the mix. | |||
"Eat icecream you will add fat. Your body can do nothing but add fat eating it. Most people can eat as much clean food as they like without adding weight, but no one can eat man made food like icecream and doughnuts in large amounts and avoid adding fat. Your body simply can do nothing else but add the whole portion as fat, same with any high carb/fat combination food." I hate to dispel your theory, but one female basically had full fat cream every night with a pudding but was still within her calorie count by being on her feet all day! | |||
| |||
"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? " My mother in law isn't slim and is 85 | |||
"Is it people who are shit cooks?" Nah, I think Ainsley Harriott hosted a program about that a few years back  | |||

"I've always been slim, always will be. I eat healthily but can eat as much as I like. I've got a high metabolism & always active." What he says | |||
"Eat icecream you will add fat. Your body can do nothing but add fat eating it.

Well except thats just not true as demonstrated by the numerous people who've done things like doughnut diets tk prove it doesnt matter what you eat but the calories in it | |||

"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? My mother in law isn't slim and is 85" I've also met fat people who lived well into their 90s and beyond! Yet my thin uncle had a heart attack before he turned 40. Fat isn't always unhealthy and thin isn't always healthy. | |||
"Yeah, I’m watching it. I can eat what I like and don’t seem to be able to put on weight, I’ve been trying to put on a stone but it’s not happening, " you need to eat more its that simple | |||

"Yeah, I’m watching it. I can eat what I like and don’t seem to be able to put on weight, I’ve been trying to put on a stone but it’s not happening, you need to eat more its that simple" If only I thought of that. | |||

"Yeah, I’m watching it. I can eat what I like and don’t seem to be able to put on weight, I’ve been trying to put on a stone but it’s not happening, " You can have a couple of mine if you like.. Sigh.. Just don't take it off the boobs, I like them.. Lol | |||
"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? " Lots actually.. | |||
"I didn't always used to be this way, it's just as life and age has crept up on me in the latter years. It's just who I am and I don't see it changing " Bit of a tangent, but I thought this was an interesting juxtaposition. You can see that a change has occurred, but can't envisage further change. Have your tastes changed at the same time? | |||
"On channel 4 just now. Who is watching? I will say most of what I see I do actually agree with, as I do it myself. I get bored with food easily, so sometimes just a few mouthful and I am either full or bored of what I am eating. I am a total waste of time and money taking me out for dinner, unless it is tapas etc, I didn't always used to be this way, it's just as life and age has crept up on me in the latter years. It's just who I am and I don't see it changing, does anyone else see the same pattern in themselves? I found it interesting, but looking forward to later programmes to see if the same research pans out as tonights………" It sounds interesting. People forget the other side. | |||

"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? " Churchill lived into his 90s. He also drank and smoked. | |||

"Yeah, I’m watching it. I can eat what I like and don’t seem to be able to put on weight, I’ve been trying to put on a stone but it’s not happening, you need to eat more its that simple" It's really not. I've dated two guys who were like human dustbins when it came to food but struggled to put on weight. I once asked one if he was okay as he hadn't eaten all his dinner and he said he'd had a whole large dominoes before coming round as he'd forgotten my mum was making us dinner and didn't want to be rude. He still ate most of it. I honestly don't know how he did it. | |||
"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? " In my previous job as a community care worker? Plenty. | |||

They all have jobs that involve hard physical work. Eg farming | |||
 I have put on in my eyes so much weight, I’ve grown big boobs ( which I hate) others still say I look thin, I don’t feel it, I now eat as little as possible, I do more exercise than ever, I work as hard as ever, but still nope it won’t come off I have begged dr’s for help, I’ve cried and cried but this last 6 months I’ve accepted that this is me, I’ve had all the blood tests and it’s purely metabolism, there’s nothing that is going to change me now, so I’m going to have to work twice as hard as ever to stay the same, I guess it’s karma for all the years of never needing to care it’s really hard to accept but I am who I am, my hubby loves every inch, especially the boobs  like I say, just personal experience, no reason or ryhme, just my take in my body Mrs blue eyes | |||
"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? My mother in law isn't slim and is 85" Yes my friend's mum has just died aged 85 and been fat all her life, never been ill and died of natural causes! | |||

Definitely not the case with my step father, he can eat 8 chocolate eclairs and 2 apple turnovers in lessthan an hour, he has very very little exercise, yet if anything he is underweight. I on the other hand put on 2lbs just sniffing a doughnut | |||

"Yeah, I’m watching it. I can eat what I like and don’t seem to be able to put on weight, I’ve been trying to put on a stone but it’s not happening, " To put on weight is hard for people like you and I. It costs me more money and more time. My perfect eating would be out of sink with set times. Breakfast/dinner/tea. I would naturally eat when I want and what I want. Like you, i don’t have to avoid any type of food, I just don’t eat the amounts others do. And certainly not all day long. I do not confess to have a healthy diet, I just fit into a slim catagory. | |||

My mother in law isn't slim and is 85 Yes my friend's mum has just died aged 85 and been fat all her life, never been ill and died of natural causes! " Same for my great gran, she was 96, overweight but never ill and don’t think I saw her move more than 20 steps in the last 20 years | |||
"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? In my previous job as a community care worker? Plenty. " Just google the oldest living people on earth and you will not see any fat people.... I’ve lived in Japan and the people on the island of Okinawa are some of the oldest living people on earth and trust me they are not fat.... On a side note... short people tend live longer and definitely age better.... Giant people not so much.... Now I know this is Fab and people must join the body beautiful brigade.... But please let common sense rain and not post non sense about fat people living longer than slim people.... | |||

"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? " Not much good when you're riddled with Dementia and can't appreciate it tho is it? | |||
"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? Not much good when you're riddled with Dementia and can't appreciate it tho is it?" May I add that being slim in itself isn't necessarily healthy. Slim people can have unhealthy diets and high cholesterol. If they aren't eating vegetables or fruit and not exercising regularly they are at risk of health issues too. | |||

I have been a slim size 10 and ate virtually nothing to maintain it.
I believe it is simply calories in and calories out.
I think the people that can't put weight on should mirror my eating habits for a month

"I havent watched it yet but the basics are calories in verses calories used. You have to eat 3000 calories more than you use to put on 1lb or lose one." Hmmm, well, according to my fitbit I walked 26 miles in two days in Prague, was 1000 calories under one day and 700 under the next and still put on 4lb, so maybe it isn't quite that simple all the time. I know exactly why - I ate carbs. | |||
"I didn’t see the show but I can understand some of these people..... I basically live on 6 venti coffees a day , 1 protein shake and 2 bottles of wine per night.... I honestly forget to eat some days and can go 3 days without eating any carbs.... " Haha, not on two bottles of wine a night my friend - they are full of carbs!! | |||

"Well yeah thats 1,200 calories in wine alone. Its not that its "carbs" its that you drank over half the calories a person needs in a day a night on top of any food. | |||
" What you dont see is these people may binge massivly per meal but they dont constantly snack or each much between them. " Exactly. People that are overweight constantly graze and simply eat more calories than they burn off. I am very active - but I eat and drink too much. I eat in-between meals and love wine. It takes dedication  | |||

In your mind if you didnt eat this extra 4lb of mass that now physicaly makes up your body where did it come from? Just how did the carbs working with your insulin and other factors go from 400ish grams to nearly 1800 grams? | |||

"It’s impossible for me to go above 11.5 stone, that seems to be my cut off point, I can literally eat anything and not put on any weight, get on it science geeks and explain that one! " You don't eat as kuch as you think/dont acount for the fact you need to eat more just to maintain as you get heavier. Either buy the ingredients or just buy a big tub of chocolate mass gainers thats about 1500kcal a shake and have that a day in addition to your regular food. But you'll more than likley find you'd need to strictly regulate your bornal food or youll just naturally eat less to compensate for the massive calories from the shake and stay the same as you have in the past. Othwrwise just snack constantly on high calories stuff ans youll be fat in no time | |||

" Measure his body temperature. There can be a reasonable difference there. Otherwise it is again much more likley that he just eats less than you think. Hes at a stable intake vs output level. You also kinda show a big flaw in just using scales every so often as your measurement. "hasnt put on an ounce" he could go up or down a whole Lb based on if he had a piss before or after he got on the scales. | |||

"Being slim is healthy - how many fat people do you see walking around at 80? In my previous job as a community care worker? Plenty.

"It’s impossible for me to go above 11.5 stone, that seems to be my cut off point, I can literally eat anything and not put on any weight, get on it science geeks and explain that one! You don't eat as kuch as you think/dont acount for the fact you need to eat more just to maintain as you get heavier. Either buy the ingredients or just buy a big tub of chocolate mass gainers thats about 1500kcal a shake and have that a day in addition to your regular food. But you'll more than likley find you'd need to strictly regulate your bornal food or youll just naturally eat less to compensate for the massive calories from the shake and stay the same as you have in the past. Othwrwise just snack constantly on high calories stuff ans youll be fat in no time It doesn't always work like that. My Ex was exactly the same , eats what he wants and puts nothing on. Admittedly he used to in a very active job so I used to think it was that, but then he went to a sedentary job, still eats anything and hasn't put on an an ounce and yes, he snacks as well as big meals. Measure his body temperature. There can be a reasonable difference there. Otherwise it is again much more likley that he just eats less than you think. Hes at a stable intake vs output level. You also kinda show a big flaw in just using scales every so often as your measurement. "hasnt put on an ounce" he could go up or down a whole Lb based on if he had a piss before or after he got on the scales. " You really won't believe anyone when they tell you what they know from experience will you. Living with someone and watching what they put down their throat is not something you can say wasn't happening. Maybe never take everything literally, the ounce thing is just a saying. Will clarify, the man never ever weighed himself so whether he had had a piss or not wouldn't have mattered...he just went on the clothes he wore, they never got tight. | |||

Just a thought. But just read the but where I said eating until I felt sick, my body just doesn’t crave the calories I need to gain weight. I’m sure I’m not alone with that too. | |||

I enjoy good food and I like wine that's why I'm fat.
Someone that eats a sausage roll from greggs and a large dominos pepperoni pizza every day is eating around 2500 cals a day.
Throw a lunch of something other shit food in there like a Mc donalds quarter pounder with cheese.
That brings it to around 3000 ish cals a day.
If you're a 6 foot labourer you're going to burn most of that off.
I like nice good food and nice wine in too big portions.
It makes my calorie count just as high if not higher.
I'm 5ft 7 and I'm not a labourer .
There are other factors but it really is this simple for most people's bodies.
