Why is it that I can guzzle down food almost all day and not get fat?

hey dudes, I spend at least an hour a day biking, a bit walking and a fair bit of time on the ol comp listening to music (Sway at da mo).

Its not like I excersize that much but i'm not couch potato. I just wonder sometimes how I can eat so much and not get fat! anyone else the same?

im 5, 11. and weigh just under 11 stone.

Seems that way to me dude. I feel like i eat a lot and i don't seem to get fat or put weight on. I spose i do do a decent amount of exercise.
 
How old are you? I used to eat loads and loads and always stayed around 11 - 11.5 stone. But in this 2nd year at uni its starting to catch up to me and ive gone up to about 13stone (im 5 ft 9 ish), time to do some exercise this summer.

That sounds like a standard days eating for me, but instead of juice it'd be coke.

Ah, when i was your age i could eat as much as i wanted and it didn't make a difference, it'll prob catch up in a few years if you continue to eat that much and not do too much exercise.
 
you have a high metabolism. This will change when you get older and it will catch up on you during your mid twenties!

Well, for a start it doesn't even look like you get one square meal in. You're also still going through puberty, your body does some weird stuff during it.

You probably don't eat as much as you think you do, is the simple answer...

What he said^. I used to think I ate heaps. Until last year when I found out what ~2000 kcal actually looked like (I was trying to bulk up). If only I had known better when I was a teenager... I'd probably have grown up a lot more :(
 
Today i ate:

- 0800: Porridge
- 1030: Banana + 1 hobnob
- 1230: Cereal bowl of leftover Jambalaya + 1 mini muffin (normally a sandwich/wrap + crisps + fruit)
- 1430: Slice of cake (normally grapes/apple)
- 2000: Kiev/chips/salad (mostly cook decent meals from scratch but was feeling lazy)

I'm 5'9 and weigh 65kilos. The only exercise i do is cycling to work 3 days a week (takes 5-10mins) and walking. I never seem to put any weight on, not that i really want to. I am worried i'm getting a bit of a belly though! :(

That it!!!!???

Man i'd be starving all day.

I do a lot of gym though.
 
I was like that till I was 21, at 22 I started getting a damn beer belly, and I'm telling you, it's hard job getting rid of it. You are simply normal :)

Well the reason u dont put on any weight is because you dont eat much! my tropical fish eat more. Hmm im so tempted to have that cappucino muffin in my fridge! oo and a bit more easter egg!

A large bowl of cornflakes and weetabix (this was at about 1 oclock)
5 Packets of crisps

3 medium sized potatoes grilled with some oil
half a can of baked beans
400g of Pork Steaks shallow fried

about 2 litres of coke.
 
I have had roast ham/runner beans/carrots etc. and a nutrigrain bar today :p
