Here are your options: 1) It's hereditary. Your family is skinny naturally, and you just inherited it, and don't have to work hard to maintain it. 2) You are athletic and exercise a lot to burn off fat calories. 3) You eat the right portion sizes 4) You don't eat enough. Embrace the fact you are skinny (as long as you are eating well) because before you know it you'll be 'fighting the battle of the bulge' meaning putting on weight, having a tummy and all that fun stuff. Several of my girlfriends and myself grew up in the 1950's had we were all skinny and, in fact, had boyish figures. I was wondering if I was ever going to blossom out. I did by the time I was 17, then got skinny again and became a good weight in my 20 - 30's and from 50 on I am here to attest I am now fighting the battle of the bulge like my other friends are. It's exercise time, diet time, and watching what you eat. If you are very concerned then please see your doctor and have your thyroid checked out called a T3/T4 blood test. Also get your doctor to check your adrenal gland. Some people can use up the food they eat just sitting. If tests come back for the good, be thankful you can eat as much as you want and not gain weight. You will soon enough!

Why do skinny people hate fat people?

Low self esteem. Because putting other people down for no good reason makes insecure people feel better about themselves. Also, society frowns upon hating people because of their color, religion or sexual orientation, so hating people for their body type is about the only type of bullying that they can still get away with. NOTE: It is a misguided assumption that skinny people hate fate people or that fat people hate skinny people; the majority of people, fat, skinny, or otherwise, don't hate people. People who hate other people based on superficial attributes are called bigots. We are fortunate that bigots are a minority and that the great majority of people do not hate.


What does it mean when you dream about being skinny and strong?

Not so long ago, "skinny" was associated with "ugly" and "weak." So the dream depends on how the dreamer feels about the idea of being "skinny" and "strong." If those qualities seem admirable, then the dream is wish-fulfillment. Otherwise, the dream reflects the dreamer being of two minds, undecided about whether to be weak and dependent, or strong and self-sufficient.
