I happen to think I'm one of those skinny people, and the trick is, that skinny people can't really eat a ton of food. And when we happen to pack in more than 3 meals a day, we also go to the bathroom 2 more times for each meal over 3.

It just all depends on your genes and metabolism. Some people can eat all the want when they are skinny and young but as soon as they get older they get fat. But others remain skinny for the rest of their lives.

Yes true.
The best example is me.
I am slim (33-24-33) and eat a lot to get fat. It never happens!!!
I am still in 46-50 kilos range since year 2000.
I also want to know the reason.

afraid so ..for some of us..it is..when i was born in 1957 at home..i was 4lb 2 ozs..im 49 now and eat like a bloody horse,and im 5ft 7ins have a 28" waist..and wiegh in at a mighty 8st 7lbs....i can also squeeze through gaps measuring 16 cms if i turn sideways(honest..got trapped behind a massive heavy wardrobe and my missus measured the gap after i got out..she couldnt believe it either) you might think that being this size is great...but when you eat like i do..and dont put wieght on..it can be a problem..i was only just excepted as groundcrew in the R.A.F.(scraped in by 2lb..at the time i was 7st 2lbs 1974)..but it has stopped me from being excepted in a lot of jobs..fireman..too light and too short,policeman ,ambulance tech,helicopter winchman..(aka dope on the rope)..however it does have some advantages..but not many..ie here in the uk i do not pay v.a.t on my clothes like all the other big adults..because i purchase teenager aged clothes..(no v.a.t)..draw the line at looking like a 49 year old skater boi..but mainly i dress in jeans and t shirts

Yes its true. I use to be a skinny and I ate a lot. Every one is jelouse of me because I was skinny. They said metabolism still strong but if it slower you get fat. Like when you had kids or got old. But if you stay in your diet and do things a lot . You stay skinny.

Yes, I can eat tons of food at every meal and snack like a mad woman and I still only weigh 90lbs. My mother is the same way , she is 55 years , had 4 kids, and eats what she wants , when she wants and still she weighs 100lbs. It is in the genes, my father is the same way.
