I eat a lot of fast food so how come I’m still underweight?

Q: I don’t get it I’m like 10 pounds under the ideal weight for a girl my age an height. I eat fast food a lot and snack all the time. So if I’m not gaining weight from that whats going on. Like is it harming my heart twice as much or what? I hope that makes sense.

A: Alright, so some people just have different body types.. some people have to work very hard to keep weight off and others dont… its that simple.HOWEVER this absoolutley does not mean eat whatever you want. you still need to eat healthy to keep away problems when you are older such as heart problems and diabetes. it also does not mean weight gain will never happen.
