What do thin people do to get that way if they don’t exercise and diet?

I have a very skinny cousin who eats at high end restaurants and has the same lifestyle is everyone else, but she is skinny like Reese Witherspoon. My other cousin also eats crazy amounts of tasty food and is skinny like Hailey Bieber. My two female cousins that try to lose weight are normal, Jessica Simpson sized girls.

Well, I think body type and metabolism are important. I am an extreme ectomorph. It's very hard to put on weight. I've managed to put a modest amount on through years of strenuous strength training. I have a six pack.

I do move around a lot and very conscious of what I eat. On the weekends I can easily workout for 2.5 hours per day. I'll walk for at least an hour a day and usually do at least another half an other of lighter exercise.

So I probably couldn't get 'fat'. But I was getting a bit of a belly in my late teens and early 20s. It's that whole skinny fat thing. You can be skinny but be really unhealthy.

But each person struggles with their own thing. Just because it's harder for certain people doesn't mean you shouldn't try and shouldn't strive to keep healthy.

That didn't go well.
It can be how their metabolism is.
I have a fried that was dtick skinny, and he ate more for breakfast than I did all day and a couple hours later he was eating again.
He had to eat a lot just to maintain his weight.
