Skinny asians? what is with their lucky genetics?

19 Comments

How did these Asians get so genetically lucky? They can eat anything and not get fat! I have several friends from China, Japan, and South Korea. None of them gain weight. I see them eat. Americans? We've got to control every calorie. I am SHOCKED how much they can eat. I can't do that. I would blimp out into a cow. I am jealous. Must be normal for Asians only.

    People always criticize my weight. Mostly from relatives and people who don't know me too well. "Why are you so skinny?" "Are you anorexic?" "You need to eat more!"
    Relatives tell my mother: "Are you feeding her?"

    You don't understand....I eat snacks like there is no tomorrow. I'm not proud of it, but I like food and I take advantage of my fast metabolism. Just being real.
    I don't know if being Asian has anything to do with it, but I think some people just have petite frames and are just proportionate to everything else.
    But hey, I'm just speaking from personal experience.

      Story of my life.

      I'm not Asian, but I have some Native American. I took after my father and one of his uncles, in terms of body type and fast matabolism. I eat a lot on average, and I barely gain weight.

    Well in their country they have a different diet.

    Coukd also be genetics but I have seen people of other races be able to eat without gaining weight.

    I have met over weight asian people here in america.
    there are some in other countries as well... but not many

      I truly believe drinking pop, causes obesity. Chinese or japanese drink tea and water. I have lost weight by drinking water.

        Tea also helps with digestion. It can be a very potent laxative... I should know. I probably lose weight every time I go.

    Also, in Asian cultures, fitness plays a common role.

    It could be that they still consume their tradition diet. For instance, if you follow the traditional Chinese diet, you can eat a lot and still lose weight.

    You cant even tell between the sexes of chinese or korean becuase the women have no curves just flatland of china. The man cannot bulk up so its impossible to see what the gender is. Who wants to be skinny and shapeless like that? Women are fuckin crazy you want to look like a skeleton.
