Am I the only guy that has had a best friend eat 3x the food I eat and we are doing the exact same things and he was so skinny and I was a normal weight ?

I've known a few guys like that, my brother inlaw is like that, he doesn't have a spare pound on him and he is 50? If he got sick he would die of starvation and he eats like crazy.

I don't think you have to be old to have a very efficient body, think about it as a survival mechanism. Food wasn't always easy to get you know, a heavy calorie burner may not have survived the lean times or illnesses for the last million years.
