Ok, so i have a really fast metabalism... how fast you ask? well earlier i went out to eat with my parents and i ordered a steak, i ate the steak, a baked potatoe, a salad, and some texas toast... and i'm still hungry, not like kinda hungry, but really hungry :shock: the good thing is when i eat alot i dont gain hardly any weight, it took me about a week to gain 1 pound, and that was with eating a lot of food every day... so i was wondering, who else out there has a really fast metabalism? and who has a really slow one? (btw, my matabalism is the only thing keeping me from being fat lol, well that and sports after school) gah, typing this message about food is making me even more hungry 8-)

I've had this problem for all my life, and when I first started bodybuilding at 16, it almost proved impossible because even if I was eating the proper amount of calories, I'd still be hungry as heck. At 6'4 and about 190 pounds, that's 3k calories a day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One thing you can do is to not eat white bread. It has tons of unnecessary carbohydrates, whole-grain bread also keeps hunger away much better.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, you just ate 1 potato. That's nothing, if possible, try ordering more. I rarely eat baked potato (actually, boiled) but if I do, it's more like 5 or 6 along with about 0.6lbs of meat or fish.

You know what really sucks? Being fat and having no one to love and dying alone.

I have a slow metabolism. I envy those that are born with fast ones.

No, it can actually be a blessing. It saved me from obesity in my teen years when I didn't give a crap about what I was eating. I'd eat french fries and hamburgers and pizza almost daily, and yet maintain a normal weight.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One thing metabolism doesn't stop is acne. Eat too much grease and acne is guaranteed, which is one good reason to stay away from excessive eating of junk food. When I finally realized that at like 16, I had literally no acne by the time of my 17th birthday.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And yes, reading posts about food when you're hungry is bad. I bet I'm even hungrier than you are right now. 8-) If you're hungry, eat. Simple as that.

Mines right in the middle. I'm not too fat nor too skinny (I'd hate to be bony, it looks weird).

Well, I'm not 'fat'. But nor am I skinny.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But you could say my daily eating habits are far from healthy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Breakfast- Nothing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lunch- Usually nothing, or a small unhealthy snack.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Woke up 7:00AM now 4:00PM, eats first meal, just a unhealthy snack.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Eats dinner around 6:00-7:00. Which is home cooked, about the only sort of healthy thing I eat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yep, not healthy. It will be my downfall.

my friends always say im fat though lol, im 13 years old, about 5 foot tall, and weigh 99-101 pounds, all my friends who are about my height weigh from 70 to 90 pounds (they are horribly skinny)... though a few are over 100, my best friend is about 150 (hes kinda tall though), ive known him since kindergarden :D

MY GOD MAN! I thought my last hug would have cheered you up some! *hugs tds* (<- I'm calling you tds from now on :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On topic.. I have a fairly slow metabolism and try not to eat a whole lot. Appearently people think I'm anorexic though I know I eat enough to keep an annoying layer of fat over my abs Tonight I ate a big greasy cheeseburger and it was so damn good, but I don't think there's any way I can burn off those calories in the few hours I have before I go to bed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*hugs tds again* One for the road :

 

 

 

Anyone else need a hug?

I'm the same way. I got the nickname 'fatty' a few years ago.. I'd like to see someone call me that now that I've turned that fat into muscle :twisted: (Oh god.. That's the first time I've used that smiley in a long time..)

Hm, I'm fat and proud :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

120 poundish and not even 5 feet tall :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

13 years old, short and proud too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm not sure if I have a slow metabolism or if I just eat too much, probably both.

 

 

 

I'm still hungry after dinner, too. I'm almost never full.

Hm, I'm fat and proud :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think it's ok to be comfortable with yourself if you're obese but I don't think it's ok to be proud of it. That's like saying you're proud that you're at a higher risk of dieing earlier than me and possibly in a more painful way than I wish to die. Also, you're not too bad. I know a guy who is probably 5 foot even and over 165 lbs at the age of 14 (maybe 15.. Meh, he's a freshman).

yeh I fast metabolism too.. I'm still hungry whenever we come home from Valentines.. Funny, because I feel full when I'm there..

 

 

 

Might be your breakfast intake..

I have a high metabolism and i hate it. I'm 6'1 and weigh 135 pounds. I go to the gym 4 times a week and no matter how much i eat, i barely gain weight...it sux. I want to be around 160 pounds :cry:

Tonight I ate a big greasy cheeseburger and it was so damn good

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You got pics?

If I had known we'd have a topic like this, I would have taken a pic. I even had my camera with me lol

I sort of have a fast metabolism, so I am really skinny. 5'9", and only 105lbs.

those foods accelerate the speed in which your pancreas releases insulin and this hormone helps in the production of fat cells, it basically tells your body to store this energy for later use, however after that the insulin level drops very very quickly which in turn makes you hungry again

I too have a fast metabalism. 5"10 and 120 pounds :) .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I like it, personaly. However I don't eat a ton either, which is kind of funny.

my metab was outstanding one year ago. it has gone to the toilet since i hit 18 though...i have noticed that i still look very fit like i used to...but a lot of my muscle mass has turned to fat :wall:

I'm 5'11" and around 130lb.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I haven't checked my weight for a long while, but it has really only gone up by 2kg or so over the past few years. I eat a lot of everything, with a strong preference for meat, and in particular, pork.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm sitting here eating and engaging in play-by-post Dungeons and Dragons. I hope I'll at least fatten up a bit to make the image more realistic... I mean how can I be a D&D nerd if I'm not fat, or at least plump?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My girlfriend's been trying to fatten me up with vast quantities of Chinese food, but so far, my body has proven impervious to her cooking.
