How do ppl stay all skinny back then in the 60s and 70s without all the current gym craze and fad diets?🤔🤔🤔

No gyms, no fad diets, ppl ate normal food just like us nowadays (with all the sweets, junk and whatnot), yet somehow overweight ppl were nearly non-existent back in the 60s and 70s.😌😌😌

Meanwhile ppl nowadays r counting every calories they put into their mouths, going 2 gyms regularly and deliberately starving themselves day after day with all sorts of fad diets (like keto, cico, paleo, carnivore, intermittent, liquid etc.) yet ppl somehow still manage 2 stay fat nowadays.😩😩😩

Overeating. As someone who wasn’t born in the USA, the portions are out of control here. Just look up the portion sizes for a bottle of coke from the 50’s to now.

I also work in food service, third shift. People come in the middle of the night and order burgers, subs, milkshakes, etc. when they know they aren’t going to burn those calories.

Mindless eating. That’s the answer.

My issue is anorexia (recovered), counting calories and restriction does work. If you actually know how to count calories and control yourself.
