Americans have a ton of mental anguish around their bodies and eating while Spanish women, on the other hand, barely think about it. Yes, they care what they look like but they don't fight or struggle with food the way we do. Americans, after all, are constantly struggling with their weight and dieting like their lives depend on it, while the French, Spanish, and Italians are known for quite the opposite. They enjoy good food and maintain la bella figura effortlessly.
In 2003 I moved to Spain with the intention of learning how Spaniards enjoyed food and yet stayed slim. My roommate, Carmen, 20 years my senior, was the perfect guide. She taught me how to cook and answered all of my questions.
In today's episode I share the 11 things I learn about eating and staying slim while living in Spain.
Spanish People Don’t Obsess Over Food.
They Aren't Afraid of Hunger.
Breakfast is a Non-Event.
No Such Thing as Low Fat.
Eating is Social.
“Nada en Paquete”.
Sweets are for Children.
They Don’t Diet.
They Don’t Exercise.
They Drink, But Not Too Much.
They Prioritize La Dolce Vita.
