I am 5'10 and on any given day between 135-140. I have a very high metabolism and eat a lot. It is quite fun and I love it.

Moving on, whenever I meet new people, or talk to people I have not spoken to in a long time, they always have to make some sort of comment about me being thin. The comments usually are:

"Do you eat"
"Let's get some meat on those bones!"
"You go to the gym? Lol, why?"
"How much do you weigh? What? Wow!"
"Did your parents feed you?"

Blah blah blah. I sit there and answer their stupid questions, all while seeing their thunder thighs and jiggly belly. Just half an hour ago I went out to eat a second lunch, had a bag of Popeye's in one hand and the dbag still asked "Do you ever eat?!" I raised the bag of Popeyes to eye level but the remarks still came.

So I'm wondering, does this happen to anyone else? I am definitely not emaciated, and I'm not sure why it's such a source of amusement for them. I wish....oh how I WISH I could walk up to the fat people in my office and be like "How do you fit in your car?" "How long till your heart explodes?" "You eyeing my chicken fatty?".

But we can't for some reason, as it is not polite to make fun of fat people, or make remarks abou them. *sigh*. Oh well, gonna go eat some more food.

 

What kind of people are around you? I'd imagine you to be VERY VERY skinny with visible bones for people to comment about you like that.

I'm 175cm and 65kg (fairly skinny I suppose?). No matter how much I eat, my weight never really increases, but I never get those comments...

 

Shop crying, they are jealous that's all.

 

Well if it's big people doing all the talking, a majority of them are probably jealous.

FYI, Just because you can eat all these junk/ fast food and not gain any weight, this doesn't mean that you are really healthy. I mean if you exercise and get your heart rate up than that's a different story.

 

how old are you? I was 6'3 150 up until I was about 24, was very active and had a 40 hour a week job on my feet.

Now I sit in a chair for 8 hours+ a day and do little exercise after work, gained a good 30 lbs....now I look "normal" but not in shape, no more 6 pack :-(

its all about burning more calories than you consume..I used to eat like a beast then, cant do that anymore.

hey you can wear the "cool" skinny jeans...be happy about that

 

I eat all day long and people say that I am way to skinny and need to eat more too.... i'm 6'2" 160lbs I don't think i'm that skinny at all in fact I think I look healthy but I still get the eat something would you all the time and we need to fatten you up. When I first started dating my wife her mom would tell me that everytime I went over and try and offer me a dinner of some sorts.....still does now that I think about it. On a side note a friend of mines wife called me emaciated once..... she really didn't need to be talking though

 

5 10 140- 145 And eat like an Enzo does gas. I get comments like that all the time!

Haters!


And I still look like I am 21 hahaha!

 

If your BMI is within the normal range tell them to shut up and exercise.

The national average weight keeps ticking higher, meaning the skinnier you are the more you are going to be an outlier. Being what used to be considered overweight is becoming the norm.

BTW, I am 8lbs under my medically optimal weight for my height and people give me all kinds of shit (BMI of 20.5).

 

who gives a shit

 

A friend of mine had a physique and metabolism similar to yours. What he did was take 2 creatine shakes a day and work out like crazy. He eventually started gaining more muscle mass and looked healthier after about 2 months of commitment. If your thinness is a problem for you, give those shakes a try.
