I was speaking to one of my male coworkers today who is skinny but always seems to eat big lunches, I assumed he was the type of person who can eat loads but never get fat. I said something about my weight loss journey and how if I ate what he did I would gain weight..
He told me hesitantly that he actually used to be severely obese and he's maintained his weight for over 3 years. He told me that allowing himself all these nice foods helped him maintain, as long as they were all calorie counted. I was so shocked because he is SKINNY. Like 6ft and 60kilos. He said he does intermittent fasting and he would eat his lunch and then have a small healthy meal for dinner and that would be all.
I always assume skinny people are just naturally like that but I guess that's not always true. I always saw him eat these large meals at lunch and assumed he always ate like that but actually he was eating a calorie counted meal and only eating twice a day.
My goal weight is still overweight because I thought it was stupid to think I could ever be actually skinny, but I guess that isn't true. I can get down to a low weight and still eat nice food!
