I eat less than my skinny friends but im not skinny..

It may be because you're not drinking enough water. If the body is dehydrated it will not burn fat because it wants to store it. Make sure you drink 1-2L of water a day to stay healthy. It might also be that you will loose your extra weight later in life.

I know how you feel. Last winter I weighed 145 lbs and I'm 5' 7". I ate the same amount as all my skinny friends and exercised way more. I decided to do something about my weight, so I cut down to about 100-300 calories a day and started running 2 miles 6 times a week. I lost 35 lbs in 5 months!! I came back to school after the summer and realized that I still felt fat so I dropped down to 109 lbs. After that I shouldn't loose any more weight, no matter how hard I tried or how little I ate, I either gained weight or stayed the same. But thats when I realized that no matter how skinny I was I would always have low self esteem, I wasnt really fat. It was all in my head. You seem to be at a good weight and I have found that the less I worry about what I eat, the happier I am. And healthier too. I now weigh 118 and I am totally happy!!! However, if I eat over 500 calories a day I usually gain weight. Hope this helped

Because you need to eat to speed up your metabolism and to lose weight.

Read those, especially the one written by Margaret Cho. You'll see what I mean.

It probably just your body type.

I'm skinner hahaha

maybe you just have a slower metabolism. I had a friend just like yours in high school and she was just naturally skinny but in horrible athletic shape. when she got to college her metabolism slowed down and its caught up with her. just keep eating healthy and if your only working out twice a weak i would try working out more. If add some interval training to your work out the pounds will come off, trust me.

ur in size 9 pants how old are you first if ur like 10-15 thats kinda bad!

Well its simple she might work out after a while or she could have bolemia which means you eat then make ypurself puke it up or it just could be your family

WTF? size 9 at 5'6 isn't bad.

i'm about a size 6 in pants and only 5'2, and i don't consider myself fat at all. in fact, quite petite.

Shake what yo mama gave you :P by the way its prolly genetic...I can eat whatever i want but it doesnt really show...125pounds but then again i exercise almost everyday..try get into a sport

I'll repeat the good stuff: more exercise, more food (when you eat too little your body stores EVERYTHING) like lean protiens, fruits and veggies.

Don't worry, it could just be genetic. Many girls, like myself, can eat every hour and stay under 100 at 15. They will grow out of it. Think of your future and how you want your body to look and what you need to do to reach that.

lol its all about ur body every1 is diff some ppl are just born to be fat my firend eats so much but he never gets fat lol :P just how life is ^_~ burn off the fat and stop worrying about how other ppl loook not every1 is the same :P if u wanna be like them then thats not good.

or you could stop stressin urself ab ur weight and be happy w what the good lord gave u. beauty is in the eye of the beholder and lemme tell ya id way rather have a girl ab your size than a skinny little thing.

Part of it is probably that you have a slower metabolism, and if you really eat that few calories in a day (which I highly doubt) then that's probably to blame. Starving yourself will totally slow your metabolism. Don't worry about your friend, focus on yourself. Eat lots of lean protein and fruits and veggies, and exercise more. I promise you, if you get 60 minutes of cardio in 5 days a week, your body will totally change. Good luck!

I'm the same way, but no one tells me I have a hot bod. Everyone says the oppistite, they say I'm fat and big.

yur not fat but you need to go to the gym wayyyy more than 2 days a week and you shouldnt even be going to burger king.
plus, i think you fibbed a little :]

Have your thyroid checked.

Try exercising more than 2 times a week.

It's probably genetic.

Everyone has a different way in which their body processes food. On a side note you should do a quick research..it's been found that a lot of the salads at fast food joints are more fattening than the burgers.

Slow madabalusm? Maybe.

Try hot sauce if you wieght bothers you.

Clearly you need to change what you are doing. You could need more healthy fats in your diet (nuts, avacado, salmon) and if you have been doing the exact same gym routine for 2 years you need to step it up. More days and different activities. Do some research about weight loss.

Oh, and people saying she has a "hot bod" and all. That deals with confidence. Try to be more confident, and not best yourself up as much. The compliments will start flying to you!

Hope I helped! =)

You don't sound big at all.

How old are you? Your metabolisms could be different. If you're maintaining weight then that's good.

You need to eat more though. Try eating atleast 1500 calories a day. You won't gain, I promise! Exercise a little more. More cardio, and lots of reps of small weights. That builds lean muscle.

Those unhealthy eating habits she has will probably catch up with her.
Make sure your diet is so strict that you'll binge on bad food later. If you want something sweet, eat a 60 calorie pudding.

I could go on for tips for days! I used to weigh 240, and I'm now down to 170. Your height too.

some people are just naturally skinny or big, try working out more and see what happens.

Maybe ur friends exercise more or u have fattier foods
