Why did people back in the 70s and 80s looked so skinny?! 😳😳😳

I saw photo of my parents and they were SKINNY!!!! I mean even the women. That isn’t normal. Most women nowadays are thicker and fuller. I heard men that they don’t like skinny women. My dad was a skinny teenager and my mom was a skinny child/preteen.
How come people were skinnier back then? I envy them. Cher was SKINNY! Even my grandma was thin!

We were more health conscious back then. Fat is NOT healthy.

@curiosi I wish it was like that today. I’m trying to lose weight but I’m told I’m fine and thick is in. I don’t care. I’m 245lbs and 5’10

@AutismGirl18 5' 2" 100lbs. Don't care if thick is in, I am more comfortable being in shape.

@curiosi That’s good. I want to be in shape

@AutismGirl18 Cook your own meals, you know exactly what is in them and the taste is so much better that you can skip the snaking.
