Does this make me a Homer simpson?

Question

I always eat. i can't help it. I like to eat. But I exercise as well. And somehow, however much I eat, I never seem to get fat. Actually, Im one of the fittest girls at school. But just the fact that I eat at all, causes my peple to tease me. I don't see why I shouldnt eat. I dont get fat, and I'm healthy. Why do people tease me?

Answer 1

Jealousy,

I don't think any further explanation is necessary but basically, if people see you can eat whatever you want and not gain a pound they will be jealous of this. The fact you probably exercise it all off doesn't matter to them, since when does Homer exercise!? From what you say you also have a high metabolism, which may slow down as you get older but keep exercising and you should be fine.

Answer 2

I was the same way as you...unfortunately, as you get older, your metabolism slows down, so make sure you pay attention to this..otherwise you very well may end up fat when you get into your 20's. And if you are eating junk food all the time, just because you are skinny does not make you healthy...you arteries can still clog and you can still develop heart conditions.

Answer 3

My guess is because they're jealous that they're not as fortuante to have a fast metabolism like yours. I would just watch your calorie intake as you grow older due to your metabolism slowing down as you age. But eat away girl...just make sure you exercise at least 30 minutes a day to ensure you're not clogging your ateries.

Answer 4

Jealousy and envy. Consider yourself one of the lucky ones because as you become older, your metabolic rate will slow down and you will gain weight. Perhaps not much, but it will happen.

Ignore the teasers or just say..."yea, it sucks that you can't eat without gaining weight and I can"..then laugh back at them.
