Of course, that's at top speed.
I eat everything I can and it isn't enough; whatever I do, it is the same. I tried healthy and unhealthy; it is probably that exothermic thingy.
I'd probably be an absurd athlete if I tried, even though (ironically) I don't care for that sort of thing. The only thing really off is I'm a bit shorter than I was said to supposed to be--6'4", but whatever. I'm tall and lanky as it is, any taller just exaggerates the effect. |
You probably have a really high metabolism though, and I wouldn't be surprised if you were meso but leaned toward the whole exothermic side. Also, if you want to gain weight, you don't need to do it by eating unhealthy foods. Someone who is only 120 pounds but eats a ton of cheeseburgers and whatnot is as likely to die from a heart attack as one who is 220 and eats the same thing.
If you REALLY want to gain weight you just need to start eating more of healthy foods.
USDA - CNPP - MyPyramid Tracker Is a really good site that lets you take a look at what you're eating and what they do for and to your body. All in all, the formula for weight loss or gain is really simple:
If you wish to gain weight, take in more calories than you expend.
If you wish to lose weight, expend more calories than you intake.
