I am also one with a super-human metabolism.  I start eating when I get up and stop when I go to bed.   Graze all day and I have yet to break 110.

 

Gluttony isn't how much you eat; it's why you eat. 

 

Wow!  You sound just like me (although, at my height, 110 would make me see-through!).  It's true, I guess; if you eat because you're hungry and need energy it's different than just eating to pass the time. 

 

LOL.  Yes, I should have added, I am barely 5 feet.  That  makes a difference.  I'd hate to give the impression I am 6 foot tall bone rack.  :26:

My wife weighs 43 kg (94 lb) so I guess I will remove myself from the conversation..

 

 

Wow!  South is TINY!  Of course, if she's under 5'3" she's probably about right.

I WILL pray for you, Steven.  I have so many family members and friends who fight that battle daily.  There seems to be too much food in our environment.  While plentiful food is a blessing, it can also be a snare.  I fight the donut and cookie temptation ALL the time.  That stuff is just not good for a person.

We ALL do that.  I love food myself and have to rein in my desire to eat sweets (especially chocolate!) and junk food.  I like it, I want it, but it's just bad for us to eat junk.  Pray for control, Steven; you know the Lord can help you with anything.  :mgbowtie:
