French Women Don't Get Fat

France health is amazing. When I was over there I didn't see any overweight people. Of course, their lifestyle and food choices are much better. Always reminded me of a Banana Republic catalog walking around Paris.

You know it's funny....I was in Paris about six months ago, and I remember thinking about the same thing!

I have heard this also. My friend went there and said that there was nobody overweight and defainatly noone obese. Its sad, in Amercia its the complete opposite.:ohwell:

soooo wrong, my family is still back in France, I have 9 sisters and a brother still back home, there are still many "fat" people there! :laugh: don't kid yourself, not nearly as many as we have here, but being overweight is a problem even in France, and three times as many people there smoke...eww, bad habits are everywhere! wether eating poorly or being self destructive.

I am proof this is so not true. I am 1/2 French and both my halves got fat:happy:

:laugh: you funny!

They had some great articles on there! Thanks!

French men are also some of the most unfaithful men! my dad before he passed was married 7 times!! my brother is on his third wife!! they love their "skinny" women too much i'd say! lol, my mom's second hubby is her hubby's 4th wife...my best friend is on his 3rd wife, either they love women or just don't know how to not get caught! craziness..everyone sharing way too much! lol :laugh: ..in total my disfunctional french family, has given me over 18 siblings!! there's some step ones in there, and my mom now at 59 has just adopted two more kids...if you add kids through marriage to the pic that number triples!!!! :noway: I swear everyone fromy my town back home is related to one another :laugh:

Yep, Parisians tend not to be fat, because they live in the city and walk (quickly!) everywhere and smoke like chimneys.

Bad habits and bad food are global now.

I just read some of the stuff in the "portion" section. How awesome!!! I love the "Zeno's Paradox of Portion Control"!!!

:bigsmile:

I've heard that the French don't vanity-size their clothing. That's cool!

...in case you didn't know from the above, I'm TOTALLY AGAINST vanity sizing!!!!!

for the naive, what is vanity-sizing?? I have an idea but please explain....

Haha, maybe they don't allow the less than perfect set out on the street! :laugh: Sorry, I couldn't resist...
