The reason some people are skinnier than others is some people have a higher metabolism and so it makes them burn off fat faster than others.

Because for every pound of lean muscle your body carries it burns 9 calories and for every pound of body fat your body only burns 1 calorie - so the more body fat you have the slower you burn calories.
To lose body fat and gain good lean muscle tissue you need to do it through diet or exercise - but preferably both.
