How come I never gained any weight when I ate junk food almost everyday in middle and high school?
I'm 23, I'm 5'5 and I weigh about 145 lbs now and in middle school I use to eat chips, cookies, and juice almost every day. In high school I use to eat fries and pizza everyday. I'm just wondering why I didnt gain any weight.

When your body is younger it is going through hormonal changes which causes it to use up more energy, calories=energy. As you get older you metabolism slows down and you can't eat the things you used to. No matter what your weight eating that sort of diet is unhealthy and if continued will cause other problems such as high cholesterol and heart problems.

Most teenagers have high metabolism and luckily you are one of them. Maybe you were active at sports those days. Do it again.
