Do you eat a lot of food?

[Ryuukie]

Please don't talk about all the cock you suck in this thread. The question I pose is based on my partner telling me his super thin brother chows down all day. I know the phrase "a lot" is subjective but in your own opinion do you think you eat a lot. I think I do.

[Corny]

For my size and weight .. yep. I do sports but not "a lot", yet nothing sticks. I guess I can consider myself lucky

[G-Lexington]

That's almost all I eat, in fact.

[loki81]

I've got the worst of both worlds... I don't eat a lot and I'm still overweight.

[HunterM]

That's almost all I eat, in fact.

Come on Lex, you should broaden your taste palette? Try to eat metal and rocks the next time.


A person who has high metabolism does not gain weight as fast as someone who has low metabolism. High metabolism usually associated with people with an active lifestyle.

When I eat a lot (as in a buffet), I have to hit the gym harder for the next couple of days.

[umjreon88]

Food... that's all I think about... And I eat A LOT!

[refujiunderground]

i eat enough to get me by.

[borg69unimatrix]

Before I turned 30-ish, I could eat anything and had to fight to stay at 135 lbs. After 30-ish, I can't even look at food with out feeling my pants tighten, and I WISH I was still 135-140 range.

[Beachguyj]

Food, you know I just couldn't stop thinking about it

[Nishin]

It's not much that I eat too much, although I definitely eat a lot at times, it's more about the (bad) quality of what I eat...

[FPNY]

I LOVE THAT DOG CLIP, and i don't think I eat as much as I used to, but yet I weigh more.....huh

[pat grimshaw]

If you're asking me if I eat a lot of food you'll have to tell me how much is "a lot".

[crimsonpaine]

I eat a lot of Goldfish Crackers at work for lunch and munchie snack time, but aside from that I don't eat nearly as much as I did a year ago. Got under 200 # last month and I'm not going back.

[AshyPhoenix]

I eat way, way too much. The medications I'm on increase my appetite. I have no idea how I don't pack on the pounds; I'm fairly slim compared to most people on the same meds I'm on. I don't have a lot of self-control, but over-eating is where I draw the line.

[Saybrooke]

Usually yes, but I'm trying to get healthy, so I'm eating less. Plus my fridge broke down

[refujiunderground]

It's not much that I eat too much, although I definitely eat a lot at times, it's more about the (bad) quality of what I eat...

well, judging from your ass, you seem to be eating right.

[Thynight]

I over eat a bit, but my bigger problems are I tend to not eat right and I don’t eat the way my doctors want me to eat. (I usually eat once a day instead of five or six times a day.)

Most any super skinny guy who goes around telling people he eats constantly but doesn't gain weight is either kidding himself or seriously misjudging his caloric intake. I know this because I was one of those skinny guys until I actually sat down and started calculating calories. I've almost doubled my intake since then, although I don't keep track of the numbers, and have gained quite a lot of muscle through working out over the past year or so*.

My eating habits were terrible, but I was so uneducated when it came to nutrition (and so accustomed to those terrible habits) that I didn't even realise it. I suspect your partner's brother is the same. There is no magical body type that makes it impossible to gain weight no matter how much you eat. There are just terrible habits, misjudgments, and misinformation.



*I wish I had the confidence to have taken a 'before' picture, because my body is so, so different now to what it was just one year ago. Sometimes I catch a glimpse of my shoulders in a window or a mirror and it actually takes a moment to register that they are mine. I'm still surprised by how much broader they've become. Seriously, if anybody reading this is ashamed of being incredibly thin, start working out and eating more. Trust me. It's so worth it for the confidence boost.

I have SAD so my weight balloons in the winter. It seems my weight will jump up to 180-183lbs in the winter and come summer, it will drop down to 170-173lbs. I don't change my diet but I am a tad more active in the summer months. New England does after all have 4 distinct seasons.

[glasvegas]

Some days, yea. When I got back to Malaysia, I was eating a lot, like 4 or 5 times per day and I guess my body couldn't take it and I have serious stomach ache and bowel issues and I practically lost all my extra weight I gained throughout the whole 3 weeks I was there. I remember when I was doing human biology course, there's something about a weight set point, a negative feedback that will keep your weight in check.

[dereperez]

I do eat a lot, especially after some endurance-related physical activity. But I don't always eat junk food. My healthy food conscience waxes and wanes so I'll go through periods of eating horribly unhealthy food (i.e. fast food takeout). I've been lucky so far for the food not to show in my weight.

[animalius]

My boyfriend is 5'7 at 120lb and he eats like there's no tomorrow. And he's hungry all the time.

As for me, I eat about the right amount for my size. Not too much, not too little.

[Telstra]

There are guys who eat alot but don't get fat because they are very active.
They burn off food quickly and convert to sweat ...

[LatimerRd]

I fast most days of the week. So far this week I've averaged about 14 hours a day, taking in all of my calories between about 2 and 8 pm. On the days I workout I eat a lot, really a lot, taking most of my calories after I workout. On other days I eat about 40% less. The former is a high carb day, the latter a high fat day. I stay pretty ripped eating this way, but I've always been pretty ripped, without much plan or thought. This current regimen is the most planning I've ever put into eating, but--seriously, I hardly think about it. I'm not particularly attracted to junk food or fast food, but I don't restrict pasta, pizza, bread, desserts or alcohol. Probably eat pizza and pasta once a week each, desserts three times a week, and have wine or beer with dinner almost every night, and often with lunch as well. I have the sense I eat a lot, and I generally finish meals feeling full, but that feeling never lasts more than, say 15 - 20 minutes, maybe less. I don't have the impression the heftier people I know eat more than I do, but I guess they eat an different mix of foods overall.

I lost 7lb a couple of weeks ago due to a tummy bug. I've put it back on


I can pig out sometimes. But eating a lot of veggies is ok isn't it?

[cgymike]

No I don't but someone on here must - he keeps spewing bs.

[justsimon]

I probably don't eat enough.

[Scealle]

I do but it depends though. Sometimes I have no appetite at all. I usually pig out on the weekends.

[JohnJay201212]

i eat about 7000 calories a day.. im trying to gain weight. im up to 223lbs. now... all muscle and all natural though.. Right now im eating my soy, butter, wedding soup shake,, dont know the caloric content yet but know that its alot..prob about 3000

[MysteryLovesCompany]

My eating habits are pretty bad. Some days I can go without almost eating anything and some days I eat as much as my bf who's almost twice my size. I'm very picky, I'm not one of those people who can just go to the kitchen and grab anything to eat. I'd rather go hungry than eat something I don't like.

Seriously, if anybody reading this is ashamed of being incredibly thin, start working out and eating more. Trust me. It's so worth it for the confidence boost.

I don't often hear people being ashamed of being incredibly thin, other than those that want to bulk out and become addicted to muscle and the work out.
There is a line between to much bulk in the form of muscle and too thin. A lot of guys start to work out and get carried away never stopping until age finds them.

The problem is that all that muscle bulk up requires a life long of work. You can't get tired when you are 55 and not work out. Flab and sagging muscle is hard to carry around for the next 20 or 25 yrs you may be around leading to those health problems that less "fit" tubbies have.

I liked being slim at 18 and 20 yrs later still like wearing the same size pants. Not ashamed.

[EuroSoccer]

If you do lot of sport, you can eat what you like (and no..... going to the gym is not a sport).
In order to stay thin you need to do lot of cardio.
