My friends eat lots and are thin. I don't eat much but am fat - why?


Question asked by: knowitall

This is a common question and always seems unfair.

Usually the reason is that their metabolism ticks slightly quicker than yours. But also they may be more active.

If you are not very active try getting more exercise. Also look at the quality of food you eat. If they eat a lot but this is mainly salad whilst you have smaller, but fattier or sugar-filled meals, then again this could explain it.

Have a healthy diet with fresh fruit and veg and exercise and you should be OK.
