What would it be like to eat and eat high calorie stuff, way past being stuffed and way, way more than you actually want to, all day long, every day; and still be so close to underweight that your Doctor recommends a high calorie diet (HAH!) ? Hell!
Sorry Macushlalondra, I didn’t mean to be snarky, but having such a high metabolism that your body constantly needs sustenance is much more difficult than you might think, just imagine the grocery bill!
Hyperthyroidism can do that for you. I lost over 30 pounds in one month eating everything I could get my hands on. The cruddy part was that it increased my heartrate and everything else as well. Walking up a flight of stairs made me feel like I’d run a marathon. Doctor gave me radioactive iodine and now I have to fight to lose weight. I wish I could have settled somewhere in the middle with the metabolism thing.

This is just another example of people wanting what they don’t (and in this case, probably, can’t ) have

The advantage of being a man - we eat whatever we want and don’t CARE if we gain weight…
