what is the reason for a thin people to continue being thin though he eats more , but still remain thin?

I used to be like this.. I asked the doctor, he said maybe I have a high metabolism. Whatever you eat becomes energy, not stored as fat. That's why you are thin even though you eat a lot.
But I noticed, after blood donation, I gain weight.

Bust this myth anyone, I believe it is true.

Ah, didnt know there was a reply for me here. Been away way too long.

Anyway, there's different types of fats that most people aren't aware of. Of course the more read ones like you would know, but most people have the idea of fats as the ones from meat, all the trans fat which are high in LDL. That of course, is proven to be hazardous to health, and people are always promoting good fats, monosats, which contain HDL which is good.

You did mention that your diet consisted of high protein and fats, PLUS you had solid workout. Simple, the high protein was responsible for your muscles. The reason why the fat did not directly accumulate and cause more fats in your body? They were burnt out since there was no inclusion or minimal inclusion of carbohydrates. The 2 main energy fuel is carbs and fats. So there you go.

You also mentioned meat + fat, which means you're talking about trans fat here, which is high in LDL. That's not very healthy cause it raises your LDL cholesterol, and the numerous side effects of this cholesterol is well known. Therefore, it is of course advisable to consume less fats with LDL. smile.gif

is it true that when you are in the BMI healthy range it's harder to lose any more weight?

hi,

Went to the mall few mths back, saw the TAKASIMA roadshow promoting their exercise equipments at the Ground Floor,
after surveying around and checking out other fitness shops like Gintell & Fitness Concept, we went back to TAKASIMA and purchased the Y-Admirer and Y-Shape, both having similar functions only Y-Shape is more for relaxing coupled with vibrating modes and channels which allows you to do 50 types of poses on a bench-like equoment.

After 3 mths of using them continuosly, can see some improvement in my body shape, looks toner and I also feel more alert and not so sluggish everyday.

Tho i had to fork out RM 3888 for these 2 equipments, I have no regrets tho' as I feel that they can help me lose some/maintain my weight. Besides, i'm also paying by installment of RM 108 per mth for 36 mths.

Disagree, I observed my friends food intake and he eats almost (the difference is almost negligible compared to the difference in weight) as much as me with the same height. But he's way underweight. Doesn't exercise much and sleeps as much as I do.

He doesn't eat enough for his level of metabolism.
Conclusion: he doesn't eat enough. & he is eating junk.
End of argument & discussion.

Actually the conclusion is:
It is a fact that some people can eat more than others and not gain weight. Not a myth and not busted.
Different people actually have different metabolic levels.

And no, he doesn't eat junk.

Dude, you just restated what I said in your own sentence!
I have no idea what you are trying to achieve by saying that.

I just separated your correct conclusion and your wrong one to make it clear.
Too difficult to understand?

Nah, just confused about your motive/intention/reason behind your actions. LOL!

Explantion: the dude's got pretty high metabolism (and probably he moves around too much) --> thus what he eats now (even if it is A LOT by normal standards), it is not enough.

So the fact/conclusion/summary/essence is still the same:

That's a good answer.
And the risk of infection stated by the answer is soooooo small, even the doctor mentioned it as a fun fact.

This is because of the high Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) of that person. Hence, it will burn the more calories compare the person with low BMR/RMR . Normally active person will have high BMR/RMR.
