High Metabolism "A blessing or a curse?"

[Yuusuke]

I find it to only be a plus.

I can eat anything i want. I do excercise (not sure if that makes a difference) and I still way a healthy 159.0 like I always have ^ ^

Same mindset that I have..I mean, I keep my weight at 130 lbs. and I eat what I want...but most of the time I skateboard for like 10 hours a day.

I have a low metabolism, but atleast I have an idea of how unhealthy I am. *Grin*

Totally!!! Keeping on top of health with a high metabolism is easy--- Be pescetarian(totallyspelledwrong)!! And take one iron supplement a day! ^-^
I have a high metabolism now too. Aparently my dad had one when he was younger. It may be a curse because he's fat now because he got into bad eating habits that he couldn't break when his metabolism did! D: Poor Daddy... I'm afraid its going to happen to me so I should probably start dieting now... DX

Eh, just learn when your metabolism starts to slows down that you need to slow down and you should be alright.

I swear female metabolism is slower than that of a males.

I think I have average metabolism, not too low and not too high.

Stupid hormones that make me crave and eat. >.>

I was thinking exactly what Salv said. You cannot eat whatever you want when you have a high metabolism. Even though you're not putting on weight, you ARE getting extremely unhealthy. It doesn't matter how high or low your metabolism is, you should eat as healthy as possible. I am, right now, 119 lb, and I, usually, exercise regularly.

True...
Except, for a second there, it kind of sounded like you were calling me 99% unhealthy.
And, if that were true, that would make you +100% unhealthy... since I'm probably healthier than you are.

I think it's a bit of a blessing and a curse.
Like Sal pointed out, having a high motabolism doesn't necessarily mean you are safe from eating junk. If you eat too much, the results can be more subtle than if you had a low metabolism -- theoretically.

I'm conscious of my intake and exercise regularly, so I'm just playing with the thought.

Sorry, I worded it wrong. I meant, the chance of someone with a high metabolism being unhealthy is around 99% easily.

Personally, I don't like it. But I think my high metabolism might be do to thyroid problems. I get so tired of people telling me that I'm lucky for having high metabolism. No, not really. It's not fun when you can't gain any weight.
