Well, even my naturally thin friends (*) generally all tell me that
they do consciously watch what they eat when I quiz them a bit.

I was thinking about this last night; yesterday, we went out for brunch,
and then out to dinner in the evening. My husband, a naturally thin
person, was genuinely not very hungry in the evening, and contented
himself with one course, where I had two (although I didn't finish my
main course), which I didn't really need.

(All the same, I seem to have lost another lb, which is brilliant
considering we've had guests!)

That's what I'm going on. That, and observation. Certainly it is
easier to varying degrees for some people to do this, though. Not
disputing that. Having struggled quite a bit in the past with
controlling appetite myself, I certainly do understand how difficult
it can be! (It has gotten much easier over time, though)

It does get easier.

PS interesting website, btw. The pics are quite charming.

How kind, thank you!
