Its now official, the French women are the slimmest, in-fact in they have the highest number of clinically underweight woman in Western Europe. But only half of them can see this, what do they do so different from the rest of us. A resent survey conducted found that French women set themselves very high standards when it comes to the weight loss battle of the bulge. They exaggerate their weight, and look at themselves as fat, (thought that was the eating disorder ‘bulimia’) but who am I , they constantly stress about their weight but its not just the women in-fact the report also says that the French male is amongst the thinnest in Western Europe also.
Is it to do with the weather, as the weather is generally warmer in France than Britain more and more family’s can go out walking and spending time out off the house, the French have a great love of cycling so again they are always out, they will walk to the shops. Where as in Britain when its raining we will order a take-away then watch TV. 76% of French people will prepare their food at home and sit down at a table for a family meal, in contrast British people will eat standing up, sit watching TV or catching up on E-mails.
An English woman working in Paris has written that the French have an ability to create the most delicious food yet have never seen a Parisian eating. If you are walking through Paris at night you will never see a
French woman drunk, they are always immaculate and trendy and are never overweight.
