I eat so much somedays.
Im a small thing I weigh like 119 lbs.
But like yesterday I hate a good breakfast.
had fruit around 10 am. Ate a big sandwhich at 1pm here.
Then had a big tacos dinner last night.
At 9pm i felt hungry and had a sweat bread.
How can this little gal eat so darn much??

Some little framed people do eat a lot. I had a friend years ago that weighed very little but was able to out eat me any time. It happens. You are also probably very active as well. Thats why you burn off those calories. You look good and I would not worry about eating extra once in a while.

Don't you like it? That no matter how big your meal is, you still stay slim. That's a good part isn't it?
Are you dreaming of becoming fat or chubby one day?
Good for you that your metabolism is super fast that when you eat a lot, it's digested so fast that you get hungry fast too.

There are days that it seems that I just cant get satisfied with my food. But I wish I could say that I am 119 pounds, or even 160 pounds for that matter! I am heavier, but a healthy proportioned build. I dont eat like that all the time, but when I do it doesnt seem to matter with my weight. I do know that when you eat often that actually helps you stay slender. My husband eats a tremendous amount and sweets. He never gains any weight because hes active and eats when he is hungry. Which is about every 2 hours.

Yes, weigh doesnt really matter if you are healthy. Have a great weekend there.

I weighed between 95 and 100 pounds for the majority of my life. I ate like a hog and never gained an ounce. I had people stare at me at times, wondering how I could eat so much being such a tiny person. (I'm 5'2" tall but was still very thin for that height.)
It's all metabolism. I had a very speedy metabolism so my body burned off the calories almost as soon as they entered my body. People were so jealous of me, some even got angry at me because I never gained any weight. I would try to explain to some that it was just as bad a problem as those who were always dieting because I HAD to eat a lot of calories in order to maintain that very thin body. (I got sick once and went down to 85 pounds because I could not eat for awhile.)
Even after having my two children I never put on any weight. After 4 weeks post-birth, I was back down to my normal weight.
It wasn't until I began to be treated for panic disorder syndrome with medication that I was finally able to put weight on. These days I have to watch everything I eat because I gain weight so fast. It was quite an experience having to learn how to diet or just eat only healthy foods in order to stay at a good weight.

It all depends on how fast your metabolic rate is, some people have high metabolisms which means their bodies breaks down the food faster and you become hungry more often, others have slow metabolisms which has the adverse affect and find they put on weight more than someone with a faster metabolic rate. I know I eat tonnes, but I go to the gym three times a week and I burn it off. Bon Appetite!

I am also a person that eat a lot every day , my family always ask me where I put it . I weight 101 lbs , and I eat so much , eating food is one of my favorite physical exercise.
I just have the good genes , that run in my family I guess . So its just our genes, we used up our food fast instead of storing it .

That happens to me sometimes ,too, most especially when I am about to have my period. These are caused by hormonal imbalance. Craving for sweets usually happens to me.

Can I ask what's your job or what kind of activities do you have each day? Maybe you eat too much or you easily get hungry because you easily burn what you have just eaten. Eating too much is okay sometimes but always see to it that you burn the carbs that you eat.

I think you are just like me. You like to eat and eat good food. I do have a stopping point. Sometimes it takes me a while to reach that point. If I am full, I will stop. I can start in the morning and go all the way into the evening. When I have a day that there is a bottomless pit feeling in my stomach, I take advantage of that. When I do, LOOK OUT! I am coming for all the good food I can get my hands on. I still maintain a good weight for my height.

This shows you have a good metabolic rate. Good ,many lack this, they accumulate fat in their body because the food taken is not properly utilized and basically low metabolism. So you are lucky, keep eating as long as your body has the power and ability to digest.
