Why are my friends skinnier than me?
I'm a 14 year old boy and it really frustrates me how my friends are so skinny. I run 3 mornings a week, I'm always going on long bike rides, I exercise loads and eat healthy but all my friends are skinnier than me. They sit at home, on their Xbox's all day everyday, they eat whatever they like and are really lazy. They are still skinnier than me! I'm fed up of working hard to be skinny and in shape when my friends don't even have to try. I understand that they have a high metabolism and all, but why can't I have one? Please explain this.
Thanks Dan.

Your friends aren't going to be skinny for long, and you are a whole lot healthier than they are. They have high metabolisms now, but that won't last forever. Keep running and eating healthy. You'll build muscle, and that is waaaayyy more attractive than skin and bones.

All people are made differently! Its no big deal AT ALL, kiddo. They're metabolisms may be a little faster than yours, meaning their bodies burn fat quicker, but thats normal. God made you perfectly, so don't worry about something silly like this! (:
