I love your honesty. I have a very close friend who is quite underweight, but she tells me she thinks about food all the time. I worry about her being too thin, but she worries about losing control. She was fairly overweight at one point and I think she fears going back there, but she tells me she has always been obsessed with food, regardless of her weight. It's an interesting thing to explore.

To me calling someone skinny is offensive, while thin is not. Most truly skinny people can not gain weight, and it is a curse they have had from childhood. Thin or lean are better words.
