Question:

Answers:
When I'm eating I stop as soon as I feel full. I don't keep eating just because there is food still on my plate. When you over eat you stretch your stomach. Then it starts to take more food to fill it up. I mostly eat fresh fruits and vegetables. I'm 5'6" 115 lb.s and have been the same size from age 17 to 23(currently). I've even had a child, and got back to my normal size within 3 months after birth. It may be my gens, but I think eating right, and staying active is the key.

Reduce fat as much as possible. Count your calories. Exercise everyday.

Educate yourself. Try using the calorie counter at http://www.ediets.com to see how much you are really eating in a day.

hun. 1st you have to tell us what you're DOING so we can HELP YOU Many thin people (like myself) were not always thin.

You have to change your lifestyle, to reach your goals. This doesn't mean a diet you stick to for a month, or working out occassionally. It means changing your eating habits, the types and amount of foods you eat AND committing yourself to a consistent routine. Only then will you see the results you're looking for and your quality of life will improve because of it.

First of all you should see a nutritionist/dietitian to establish your caloric intake as well as your physical health.
Some people have a fast metabolism and that makes it easy. However, if you are not one of them, then you need to eat small meals (1/2 cup of starch 3x daily, 4 small portions of protein(eg. 1 slice of american cheese), 3 cups of dairy daily, 3 small fruits and 4 portions of vegies. Eat your meals 6 times a day. Breakfast: 1/2 cup of starch or 1 proteinl w/skim milk
AM snack: fruit
Lunch: 1/2 sandwich w/2oz meat, lettuce, no fat.
PM snack: fruit
Dinner: 1/2 cup starch (rice or.), protein (meat or..), 1/2 cup cooked veggies, tossed salad with lemon juice.
Evening snack: fruit

6 meals a day sounds like a lot of food, however, for the body to burn it must receive fuel regularly in small amounts. Don't forget to excercise. Very important.
