Well, what can we do about it?

TOO THIN
It can be as difficult to gain weight, as it is to lose it. Most people do not recognize this as being a problem. A lot of people will be envious of your dilemma. Well eat more. It doesn’t need to be difficult. Just add a small amount to each meal, don’t try to ‘Super Size Me’ if that is not what you are capable of eating in one sitting. Try to squeeze in an extra snack in the morning and afternoon.

Don’t think this means stuffing junk down your throat all day long, candy bars, sweet stuff. No, make it good food, some protein and carbohydrates. Try some new foods and flavors. Try different styles of cooking. In fact start to make more of your own stuff. As your interest in creating new and delicious meals increases so will your appreciation of food.

Take a class in cooking and entertaining, try to make food something you are interested in. Let’s face it we all need food to survive so enjoy it.

TO FAT
Eat less and engage in more physical activity. Remember the body stores the food we do not need as fat. Eat too much and pile on the fat cells. More people suffer from being overweight or from easily gaining weight so this is perceived as being a more difficult thing to control. It isn’t

What you do need is to exercise some self-discipline. In this instance you need to cut out the snacks and reduce the size of your meals. You may need to be more drastic than thin people trying to gain weight. You already enjoy eating, so much in fact that you already eat too much. There is no magic bullet or pill. Try using a smaller plate at mealtime and don’t pile it high. Try to eat more protein that carbohydrate. Protein makes you feel fuller for longer. A thick nutritious soup will keep you feeling fuller for longer than a standard meal of the same calorific value.

Very important for this group is the need to increase your level of physical activity. Provided your food intake is now at a level slightly below what you need to stay where you are, the increase in physical activity will increase your rate of weight loss. Your body will begin to use up those fat reserves it has been storing.

METABOLISM
What about it? Research has shown that metabolism doesn’t vary that much. True there are differences but it is not a reason or excuse for either TOO THIN or TOO FAT. So forget about it and put into place an action plan to get you where you want to be.
