　　Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people don’t eat more on average than thinner people.In fact, some investigations, such as a 1970 study of 3,545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.

　　Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people.A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts.The more the men ran, the greater loss of body fat.The more they ran, the greater their increase in food intake(吸收)．Thus those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost greatest amount of body fat.
