Hasn't the fast/slow metabolism idea been debunked in any study that's looked at it? Last I checked, they found that people that report fast metabolisms, think they eat more than they do, and the reverse for so called slow metabolisms. Outside rare cases, most everyone metabolises in a similar range, right?
People always think that the opposite problem it is luckier. 
It is just two different problems. >

How is it a problem to have opportunity to enjoy the best foods as much as you want? Isnt it like having a problem of having too much money? >

Because being underweight is dangerous for your health. And we still have to watch our diet because they may not make us overweight but they are still unhealthy. I don't want diabetes >

I mean this sincerely, thanks. As a person with a slow metabolism who has to watch what they eat it's "nice" to hear that you guys with fast metabolisms also face problems...even if they are different ones. >

A further problem is when you hit middle age and your metabolism slows down. Then you find yourself putting on weight and having to diet for the first time in your life and trying to figure out what are the right portion sizes.
So in all, you've spent a fortune on food over the years, and still end up fat. >

True I have the same problem. Finally someone who understands >

The whole metabolism thing is pretty much a myth. Yes it will cause some variance, but it all really comes down to physics. Calories consumed vs calories burned. If you're drinking a few cans of soda and junk food, then it's very easy to get over the amount of calories you're burning. If you're trying to gain weight in a healthy way, then yes I agree with you. I've been working on gaining weight for years and it sucks, takes times, and is expensive, but there are ways to do it cheaper. Have you tried tracking your calories? Also consistency is super important, if you eat a huge lunch, or go all out only a few days of the week, then it's not going to work. You can check out subreddits like r/gainit for more help. >

Fast metabolism are usually people who are very active or have low appetites. They most likely aren’t eating at a calorie surplus to be putting on weight. And people can eat less then they think they can >

There is a skinny gene though >

Sure but for most people whether they are trying to lose or gain weight should look at their diet and activity level and be honest with themselves >

600-700$ a month? Sounds like a skill issue tbh. I have an extremely fast metabolism, i workout a lot, and i use a lot of Adderall which speeds up metabolism and I eat 3000-3500 calories a day and it is way less than 600$. >
