It's called not over-eating. Everyone has a maintenance level of calories which will keep their weight more or less the same.

If you did, you would have gained weight. The food you ate does not just disappear.

Tell that to my body 🤷🏾*♀️
Its all to do with the genes
If I have been eating healthy all year and lost weight then I go out to eat just once then I’ll be gaining all of it back that same week. My metabolism is the opposite of usain bolt

Yes because your body and only your body is just exempt from the laws of thermodynamics.
It's all about habits, too.

haha so funny
Yes I still have two unhealthy snacks a day. I do watch what I eat a lot and don't eat that much, which is exactly my secret. if you never eat much you just have a small appetite and struggle to eat a lot. No I eat 3 meals a day, just not very big ones.

Ever since I became vegetarian I’ve not gained weight despite eating 3 full meals everyday and snacking I’m still 52-53kg so I do think it has a lot to do with diet and the fact that meat just has so much fat which if you don’t exercise regularly won’t burn off and you will ultimately put on weight.
Weighing in here. I’m exactly the same weight as I was six years ago. I’m a ectomorph. No I do not weigh myself. I do not follow any diet. A good exercise plan is important as well. Part of it is genetics. A fast metabolism is only one tiny slice of the whole pie.
