That Metabolism hasn’t caught up with you yet. Some people may suffer problems and pain that keep them from working out, as well. Diabetes is a biggie. Our high-fat, high-carb sedentary lifestyles don’t help and over time can cause health issues.
Everyone’s body chemistry is different. You are an exception to the general rule of thumb.
As for myself, I’ve gained 42 pounds in about a year because I haven’t been active due to chronic abdominal pain and nausea. Not long ago, I was like you. Skinny. I’ve never been ‘fat’ in my entire life until now.
The abdominal pain has finally been determined to be my gallbladder. The gallbladder was also causing Pancreatitis which is also very painful.
I go for surgery Tuesday. I’m 38 years old. My goal after surgery is to get skinny once again. Now I will finally have my energy back.
I hope everything goes well for ya!
