Why do some guys eat so much?

[Anonymous]

My brother eats so much, it's so annoying. Everytime we order something he eats half of it and leaves the rest. Then he eats the rest for dinner. It's making me so mad. I want him to stop eating like a pig. (Btw I'm 15 so I can't move out.)

He eats everything in the whole house every single day!

[CityBoy773]

Okay growing boys eat a lot so calm the fuck down. Also, I'm assuming you're in health. Haven't you learned about metabolism yet?

Hell I eat a lot only because I have a high metabolism and work out.

Seriously, relax. You're overreacting to the max.

[Asker]

Yes I have, but no one needs to eat 4 whole KFC breasts at once. Let's be honest

[CityBoy773]

My brothers do! Seriously, HIGH METABOLISM+GROWING BOY=HE EATS A LOT.

Just chill out ffs. I'm not gonna be nice about this.

[Klaatu51]

if he eats yer own food as well, then i understand it would be a major problem... otherwise if he eats food dat he pays himself it's ok.

basically i believe u should discuss this wid yer family... :)

[Asker]

They think he's normal

[Klaatu51]

oh i see... do they pay for his meals? how old's he?

[Asker]

He's around my age but he's bigger and yeah

[Klaatu51]

@asker i see... well if he's bigger possibly he needs a bigger amount of food indeed. does he work-out at least in order to burn those calories? if yes and yer family's ok wid it i guess u don't have to worry dat he'll get fat :)

[Asker]

No.. He plays video games all day and uses his laptop

[Klaatu51]

hope at least he hasn't had any health issues till now

[cinderelli]

you seriously considered moving out? because of this? at least he leave half of it

[Asker]

Then he eats it too (later)

[MadeInAmerica]

It's not that serious. Growing boys usually eat a ton. It's not worth getting annoyed or moving out about.

[Asker]

But it makes me so mad

[usernameisnttaken]

If it's his food what's the problem? If he's still at home and pays rent, he's entitled to the food just as much as you. When guys are hungry, we eat. It's what we do. He don't eat small little portions and think to ourselves "UGH! If I even look at chocolate cake I gain weight!" Fuck that! We eat when we're full. Maybe he has a high metabolism too

[Asker]

I eat whatever I want too, but I eat normally. So if you're trying to tell me I'm anorexic? No, my whole family is naturally skinny. Including him... But he eats way too much

[usernameisnttaken]

Then he has high metabolism. And you're also going through your teenage years where you hate everything at one time or another. He's a perfectly normal guy. He's hungry. He eats till he's full. Problem solved

[Jay-Are]

I think it's because they are hungry and need to eat. End of story.

[Asker]

But why do they need to eat SOO much

[Jay-Are]

"So much" is a relative term.
A friend of mine made some dinner for us. He couldn't finish it. But for me what he cooked was just a snack.

What you could do is this. Over time the stomach can grow and shrink. The more you eat, the more it will grow and the longer it will take before a person has eaten enough. Since this also works the other way around he can get used to eating less... unless he really needs that amount of food.

[Asker]

I guess

[lifes_curve_ball]

Cause man, we need food. How much is this amount that you're saying as a lot anyways?

[Asker]

Like eating 4 KFC chicken breast in one sitting. Along with 2-4 glasses of Pepsi and coleslaw

Wtf? And then a few hours later, he eats like this again

[Asker]

Breasts*

[lifes_curve_ball]

Lol that's not a lot. Replace the Pepsi with water or Gatorade or milk though cause Pepsi is nasty and make it halal KFC and I'll eat that. You gotta factor in metabolism, what he did prior (especially if it was work out or ball), that he's probably bigger than you or if he's around your age then he's growing.

Generally speaking guys when growing will reach an age where they eat a lot, it's normal.

[Asker]

I live in a Muslim country, everything is halal. Yeah, he's bigger than me but still... You just don't understand. Nobody in the past ate that much, basically he's obese on the inside. And he doesn't work out... He plays video games all day

[lifes_curve_ball]

Lol I'm sure people ate that much in the past. Take away the Pepsi part if you mean historically before soda and all but people still would eat especially as 4 chicken breasts isn't a lot.

I prefer them grilled though without all that batter on them cause you actually get chicken not batter with a side of chicken.

And obese on the inside?

[Asker]

yeah... He looks normal on the outside but on the inside his veins are probably clogged..(from fat). And he might even have health problems too.

[lifes_curve_ball]

I don't know, I'm no doctor. Still 4 chicken breasts and cope cole slaw isn't a lot. The Pepsi is too much though plus it tastes nasty. Water ftw

[Asker]

i never asked you if you were a doctor, i was just telling you what i think.

[lifes_curve_ball]

Yeah and I was saying 4 chicken breasts isn't that much to eat so I don't think it'll mess him up on the inside unless he goes all cartman after eating them lol

[Asker]

Yeah it is, you're just a fatass (probably)

no offense

[lifes_curve_ball]

Lol you're just thinking it's too much because you're probably comparing it to how much you eat but biologically you 2 are very different. Apples to oranges dude, apples to oranges.

[Anonymous]

lmao i find it funny actually lol

well they are physcally bigger and they burn more so...
they also build muscle more/faster

[Asker]

I don't find it funny at all

[Toad-1]

It is pretty hilarious you are taking this so seriously @asker

[Asker]

I'm tearing up

No one understands

[Opinion Owner]

look its normal, he is probably at a growing age... its very normal

[RasAlGhul]

i eat a lot... even my mom tells me that.. im just hungry and i have too feed me :D

[Asker]

But what triggers your extreme hunger?

[RasAlGhul]

i do a lot exercise so i need eat for reach my golds... i just feel hungry all the time.. i dont know what triggers that... food its my fuel and i have too keep rolling xD

[Asker]

lol then I guess it's okay since you workout

[Anonymous]

He's growing, he needs food for that. If it's annoying discuss it with others in the house and figure out a situation that works.

[tenofthepeaks]

lololol.. not your bloody business.

[Asker]

But he's going to become fat!

[tenofthepeaks]

not your business.

[Asker]

If he gets health problems then it's totally my business

[tenofthepeaks]

are you his mother, or is it your real mother? just my view it's not your business... get over it

[Asker]

Shut up, ten of whatever

[jmmmfi2]

15? I thought you were 18-24

[Asker]

Yeah.. I made myself older
