Ha!
It's unbelievable.
Waistbands! LOL! OMG! I can't imagine that! I'm 39 but thank goodness my waist is still at 30" and I wear the cute jeans that are considered "trim", so they ride low.

I know a lot of people would not like that, but heck, I'd like to know. I feel a bit ostracized from your posts regarding weight, sometimes. Although, when I'm 57, it may be a totally different comment on your post. ;) peace
I think a lot of people would envy you, Leonard. But you make a good point. Just what does keep some people trim? Is it, as you say, a fast metabolism? It would be revealing to get hundreds of trim people in a room and let them talk about what they think influences their health.
Fidgeting, I think that's what keeps the trim, trim. And, perhaps sub'ing smokes and drink, for food.
