7 Skinny Secrets To A Svelte You
Skinny people intrigue everyone. What has it taken them to get that figure, or is it simply the result of lucky jeans? Er, I mean genes. People wonder if the skinny just got lucky or if they have to work really hard to stay thin.
Well, yes, and no
Those who are really thin likely work really hard to stay thin. These are the folks who watch every single calorie that crosses their hips and eat rabbit food with no dressing.
On the other hand there are other thin individuals who make thin look easy.
Many common character traits are shared by the naturally thin that help to maintain their svelte figures. Among the hundreds of naturally skinny people Ive interviewed over the last 14 years, Ive found seven secrets they have in common. If you can, try to identify with some of them. Also, see what changes you could easily make to become a naturally thin person with a svelte figure too.
1. These people have thin thinking. They know they can stay thin forever and make comments like Im little, or Im not going to be able to eat all of that. Their self talk is different than others. Their actions to circumstances and events are different. Food is not their placebo when a pet dies or they have to do something unpleasant. To them food is just food. It may taste good, they enjoy eating it, but it isnt there for anything but to be used as fuel for their bodies.
2. Naturally thin people do not diet. True Story. They would never ever think of dieting. If asked why, their response is that theyve never thought of themselves as anything but skinny so theyve never had to diet. During my many years of research one question I asked every thin person if they had ever been concerned about gaining weight and their response was always no. When I asked why not, the would tell me Ive never been heavy or over weight
3. The naturally thin dont mix emotions and food. If the thin are sad, they cry or call a friend. If they are angry, they go work out or punch their pillows. There is little to no crossover between emotions and eating. It simply doesnt make sense to them. The only reason food is ever thought of is because they get hungry ” thats it. If they are not hungry, but sad ” they will deal with their sadness. Dealing with emotions in an emotional way is commonplace for this thin group.
4. The naturally thin can be social without eating. If the thin are invited to a bbq and they arent hungry, they have no problem standing around not eating. If and when they get hungry, they will gladly grab a dog or burger, but not until then. They go to a bbq to enjoy the company of friends and family. Grazing for the simple act of grazing is not an option.
5. Naturally thin people eat what they love. They would never think of eating celery sticks unless they were craving celery sticks. And when they are hungry, they eat foos they crave. They never deprive themselves of something by saying no, I cant have that. They know they can eat anything they want when they are hungry. They dont say no to any food unless they are sensitive or allergic to specific foods.
6. The naturally thin dont numb out or mindlessly eat. They stay conscious of what they’re eating and the effects it’s having on their body. They would almost never find themselves with their hand at the bottom of a bucket of popcorn at a movie, wondering who ate it all. These naturally thin men and women know how hungry or full they are before, while, or after they a meal. Naturally thin people are ignorant about food. They don’t know anything about diets, and the process of counting calories baffles them.
7. Naturally thin people almost never overeat. There is nothing worse to this group of thin individuals, than overeating. They hate how it sinks their energy level and forces their bellys to protrude. Yuck! This extreme discomfort keeps them from overeating and reinforces this negative feeling. The average naturally thin person only overeats two percent of the time.
Can you tell the difference in their mindset and actions?
So, these thin people dont depend on genetics, luck or the quality or type of food they eat. They eat differently than others ” what they eat, when they eat, their freedom to choose any type of food and they have a different connection with their bodies.
So, now that you know all this, if you are considering losing weight, there is no time like the present and dieting isnt necessary as the naturally thin dont.
