In the Tang dynasty, they only ate two meals a day, not because they wanted to lose weight, so they went on a diet instead of eating, but because there was not enough food. Although it was a big agricultural country at that time and there were many farmers growing crops, there were often times when all kinds of taxes were paid and the remaining food was not enough for the family to eat three meals a day.

So, they have two meals, usually lunch and dinner. However, this lunch is not the kind we have at eleven or twelve now. The first meal in the morning is to move the breakfast time back and the lunch time forward.

Then the second meal in the afternoon is to move the lunch time back and the dinner time forward. With this arrangement, you can only eat two meals a day and you won't be particularly hungry.

Three meals a day, which only nobles and emperors could enjoy at that time. Ordinary people usually only eat two meals a day, and they will rush to finish today's farm work during the day, because at night, when it is dark, they can't work.

Moreover, the beauty of the Tang Dynasty is plump rather than fat. The beauty admired by the Tang Dynasty is not that kind of fatness, but that where women should have meat, they should have meat, and where they are slim, they will be slim. So, in the Tang Dynasty, some girls thought they were beautiful? No, you're not.

We can see from many documents and ancient poems in the Tang Dynasty that they said at that time that they worshipped beautiful women with plump figure, graceful figure, fair and delicate skin color and strong waist. This seems to be similar to our current aesthetic, that is to say, the feeling of big chest and small waist.
