I respectfully disagree. Italians eat pasta and pizza very often. They keep a balanced weight because of the good quality of the ingredients those pasta and pizza are prepared with.
I was an exchange student in Italy when I was in highschool. The family I stayed with definetly ate tons of pizza and pasta EVERYDAY yet they were skinny. Because they don't overeat and also they do walk almost everywhere and very fast.
I eat pasta almost every day and I am 170cm and 52kg. So eat pasta and dont worry

I'm Italia and my family, and my friends, we eat pasta twice in a week, pizza twice in one month, the otherday we eat a lot of vegetables, fishes, legums, bread, fruits, a littlebit of meat, twice a week chicken, a little sweety every day, but for breakfast, all italian people eat caffè and milk with 3 or 4 biscuits, its enough. Breakfast total is in sunday at bar.
It doesn’t matter what you look like on the outside. It matters what is going on in the inside. Skinny does not equal health. You can still have nutritional deficiencies, organ failure, clogged arteries, gut imbalances, hormone imbalances, and diabetes… all while being skinny, having portion control and eating organic nutrient rich ingredients. This is a lot of wheat.. which signifies diabetes, potential gut permeability issues, like MS (and Italians rank top 2 in the world for this), and nutritional deficiency from lack of variety.
When I went to Italy, all I saw people eating were pastries for breakfast, and than for the rest of the day, pasta and pizza and gelato. I asked some my Italian friend’s what else they eat and they literally just said pasta and pizza. I was there for four weeks by this point so I was sick of all those foods, so I was desperate for another answer but they did not give me one…lol
Pasta, rice or polenta : once a day (lunch not dinner) 75-80g Meat: once a week Pizza: once a week Lasagna : once a month Fresh Fish : whenever you want Fresh Vegetables: possibly everyday Fresh Fruit : everyday
Hi all, I’m Italian and I think that eating and exercising to your heart’s content and listening to your body’s needs is the key to stay healthy and happy. Moreover, being skinny isn’t equal to being healthy. Given this, I try to eat balanced meals, move my body and never say no to my food desires for reasons concerned with diet culture. Let’s promote a healthy relationship with food!
Italians are going to be a thing of the past given their shockingly low birth rates, along with Spain and Greece. The rest of the developed world not that far behind.
Exactly, maybe 30 years ago good looking thin Italians for the most part, but then came larger supermarkets popping up everywhere in Italy, In the 70's and 80's I remember only going to very small markets in italy to get healthy food, mostly produce, fish, lean meats, and less choice of all the crap that's creeping in Italian supermarkets/grocery stores today which is unfortunate. In 1996, "Big American pizza" frozen pizza was introduced into the Italian market, when I saw that, I thought "oh no they're copying the Americans", it's too bad but still to this day they haven't reached American F A T N E S S yet.
They keep their weight because it's all their bodies have ever known. Anyone who comes to Italy can't really embrace this type of eating for a long period of time
