    There are a huge number of reasons (Metabolism, Genetics, Exercise) but don't be fooled into thinking that skinny=healthy.

    The thing is you'll likely have lots of internal fat, which is actually more harmful to the body. Being thin does not equate to being healthy.

    I would seriously rethink that diet - it sounds awful.

    I have the same thing, I eat around 3000-4000 kcals per day largely junk with next to no exercise.

    I think it really is going to catch up soon, and I'm not looking forward to it.

    I know a few people like that. It's quite unhealthy though.

    You should really avoid that kind of food, i don't see how it can even taste nicer than some lovely pasta or a big crunchy apple!

    Skinny people can be healthier than fat people, it depends your body shape what you'll turn out like from eating junk and doing little exercise (what a hard word to spell). If you go to the gym, and do some sports and take a general intrest in your appearance then you are far less likely to pig out often - just a thought!

    Be careful, even though you are skinny that doesn't necessarily mean healthy - your cholesterol levels could be sky high so just try to cut down on junk if you think you eat too much off it. Lucky you for having a high metabolism though! I put on weight like there's no tomorrow if I eat too much junk.
