Thin: you may have weak abdominal muscles. Doing sit ups may help you strengthen your "abs"

Abdominal distension: Post meals can occur due to constipation or gastroparesis or consuming large amount of food very fast or in a single meal. Such may improve with multiple small meals, exercise and treatment of constipation if present
