7 Skinny Secrets To A Svelte You
Everyone is intrigued by skinny people. We wonder what it will take for us to get that kind of figure or if the skinny are that way because of their family characteristics. Did the thin hit a lucky streak? Or must they work extra hard to keep that svelte figure.
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.
Those that are naturally thin have many character traits in common to maintain their svelte figures. Here are seven secrets that I found after interviewing hundreds of naturally thin people over the course of 14 years. See if you can identify with any of them. See where you could make some natural shifts easily so that you can be a naturally thin person too.
1. These people have thin thinking. They know they can stay thin forever and make comments like I’m little, or I’m 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 isn’t 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 they’ve never thought of themselves as anything but skinny so they’ve 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 I’ve never been heavy or over weight
3. The naturally thin don’t 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 doesn’t make sense to them. The only reason food is ever thought of is because they get hungry - that’s 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. Naturally thin people don’t have to eat to be sociable. Should a thin person go to a bar-b-que and not be hungry, they don’t have any problem mixing and talking but not eating. Whenever they happen to get hungry, they grab something to eat, but not until they are hungry. They are there to enjoy the socializing with family and friends. They don’t know the meaning of the term grazing.
5. Being naturally thin means eating what a person loves. It doesn’t mean eating celery sticks if they aren’t craving celery sticks. Eating foods they crave takes place when they are hungry. They would never think of not eating something or saying no, that isn’t good for me unless of course there is some allergy or sensitivity to the food. Thin people know they can eat whatever they want should they be hungry.
6. Naturally thin people never eat just for the sake of eating or to numb themselves. They are conscious of the effect what they eat have on their bodies. They probably wouldn’t be found at the movies with their hand at the bottom of the empty bucket of popcorn looking around for who ate it all. Naturally thin people pay attention to how hungry or full they are from the time they begin eating until they have finished the meal. These naturally thin people don’t know anything about diets, counting calories or any other shenanigans.
7. Overeating is not something naturally thin people do. This group of individuals see no value in overeating. They know it saps their energy and causes their belles to protrude. Yuck! Overeating causes extreme discomfort and reinforces the negative feeling while keeping them from overeating. Overeating occurs less than two percent of the time in naturally thin people.
Can you tell the difference in their mindset and actions?
Now you know that thin has nothing to do with luck, or genetics, the quality or type of food. Thin people don’t gain weight because of how they eat, their connection with their body, when they eat and the freedom to choose any type of food.
If you are thinking about losing weight, you now know it isn’t about diet since the naturally thin don’t. And now is the time to do it!
