[QUOTE=Chicken_Chaser;24149303]Lifting for one hour? Ugh, is that normal?[/QUOTE]
[i]etc.[/i]
as in exercise, not just lifting.
Eating 5+ meals a day is easy when you are jobless and don't go to school. For the rest of us however, it's difficult to get more than 3 meals in because you are allotted only one lunch break, and don't want to get fucked over by snacking when we are supposed to be working/studying. I've been trying to do this shit since last Fall, it's just too hard to find the time. By the time school/work is over, its around 4-5 so you get 1 meal to plan before its past 8 when it's not wise to eat.
[QUOTE=bravehat;24148853]Actually that last part could be true because the body releases hormones and chemicals that suppress the appetite during sleep, and slows metabolism.[/QUOTE]
I used to think it was true, but apparently it's not.
I can hardly be bothered to eat three meals a day, let alone 7 (albeit smaller) ones.

Unless you want to gain [i]fat[/i] which isn't something you want. IF you need to gain weight, you want to gain muscle mass. You only need a little bit of fat to be healthy.
This is bullshit, I way 108 pounds and I don't eat 3 basic meals but I still stay skinny.
[QUOTE=TheRipper12;24141909]I think its okay to be fat as long as you are happy.[/QUOTE]
Really, as long as you are completely aware of it and the consequinces, and accept everything about it, then yes. However, few people do.
If you are constantly complaining, but never do anything about it, then theres a problem.
ME on the other hand, i have an extremely high metabolism, so no problem.
I'm 5'8" and ~120 pounds, I need to gain weight/get shorter.
I saw a happy fat person today.
He was eating a pie, probably why he was happy
what if I'm severely underweight, have a metabolic disorder, and want to become fat?

I think we should start with saying what is "fat" in this thread,
like 100kg, 200? 3/400?

15% bodyfat is like what I'd call the limit before you start getting "fat".
Of course however, 15% bodyfat on a well built dude is fuck all compared to 15% bodyfat on a skinny little dweeb.

Ah.
I have a naturally high metabolism. I just gotta get around to going to the gym to try and build some muscle.
[QUOTE=TheRipper12;24141909]I think its okay to be fat as long as you are happy.[/QUOTE]
Yeah as long as you are happy go increase your chances of getting a heart attack or stroke.
Increase your metabolism by working out in the mornings. Go for runs/jogs, push ups, sit-ups, if you go to the gym to workout, do your workout in the morning (if you can make it). Morning workouts increase metabolism. If you're gonna go for a run or do some push ups (no major workouts) don't eat breakfast at all or just have a SMALL breakfast. Obviously if you're going to the gym for a heavy workout, eat breakfast or you'll have no energy to do anything.
Look at any workout ads with skepticism. I NEVER believe all those gimmicky workout shit. Everyone is always looking for an easy answer because they're too lazy, therefore, put hope in gimmicks. What's wrong with eating right and exercising?
I'm an ectomorph as it is the last thing i need to do is speed up my metabolism even more. Especially since I'm trying to gain weight

If you're like me a high metabolism means it's harder to gain weight of any kind. You'll need to overeat a lot.
I only eat once a day. And drink tons of water and soda.
[QUOTE=Zeloutional;24157340]I only eat once a day. And drink tons of water and soda.[/QUOTE]
you are unhealthy
dear pharmaceutical companies plz stop trying to cure cancer etc (there's no money in it) and invent a pill that speeds up metabolism to the speed of light and sell it in america you will make billions overnight

Have fun with diabetes and major health problems.
Ah, this thread again.
I have no idea if I should work on maintaining my current weight or losing even more to make my lower abs show (I have a six-pack... kind of)
Everyone has a six pack, it's just about how much fat the person has.
Now I'm no longer in school I haven't bothered eating lunch a lot of days so I guess my metabolism is pretty bad. I've been doing more exercise though so it's balanced out and I haven't lost or gained weight.
[QUOTE=bravehat;24157547]Everyone has a six pack, it's just about how much fat the person has.[/QUOTE]
well durr :downs:
By six pack I mean visible six-pack
Gamers are skinny people with high metabolism I did not expect this.

It's amazing.
Your stomach doesn't digest anything, it churns and ferments in a sense and mixes.[/QUOTE]
Fixed it for you.
"Digestion is the mechanical and chemical breaking down of food into smaller components that can be absorbed into a blood stream"
"In mammals, food enters the mouth, being chewed by teeth, with chemical processing beginning with chemicals in the saliva from the salivary glands. Then it travels down the esophagus into the stomach, where hydrochloric acid kills most contaminating microorganisms and begins mechanical break down of some food"
