>I know quite a few skinny people who have struggled every single day with food noise, overeating, and self control. They simply got through it with a lot of struggle, habits, and discipline.

You're right, but the charitable interpretation of GP's comment is that people that were always skinny don't feel hunger, which clearly isn't true in a strict sense, but not totally untrue either, it just isn't as often.

What you're talking about seems to be people that worked their way to being skinny, or those that have such low body fat that they have visible abs, which even 'naturally skinny' people would struggle to maintain.

As someone skinny enough to have visible abs (But not washboard abs either), I don't try particularly hard to maintain my weight, it's mostly just avoiding obvious things like having fast food all the time (I still do eat it) and working out. Food isn't something I think about unless I'm hungry, and despite working in offices stocked full with candy/snacks, it hasn't resulted in weight gain over my tech career. I've been told directly by people in my circle (Not in tech) that they would really struggle with working in an environment like that.

I know a few folks on GLP-1s, and they operate on a completely different wavelength in regards to food than I do, and it's been great to see them reach their body goals.
