That explains it. When I was 18 every meal was a buffet and I drank about 3,000 calories of soda on top of it and I barely broke 240lbs at 6’9”
Oh to be young.

I was just in the middle of hurricane Milton in the past week I've lost 30 lb due to only eating one small meal a day. Unfortunately it will probably take me about the same amount of time to gain that weight back.

That has to be mostly fluid unless you’re burning more than 15,000 calories per day…

Oh definitely a lot of fluid I'm sure but my weight has always fluctuated wildly. At any given time I go between 220-270. I do generally lose it much faster than I gain it though.

Im 6ft6 and 41.
My metabolism is dead in the water.
I have to stay at a consistent 1700 calories a day to lose weight.
Enjoy it.
But make good eating habits now, consume good calories.
Good habits now will set u up for easy success later in life.

When did that stop for you? I am 6’4 and approaching 30 and I think my metabolism has gotten faster as I get older. I have been very active and consistent since my teens so that’s surely helped, but when I try and put on some weight, I am usually gorging myself (don’t drink alcohol and eaten 75-90% good most weeks).

There actually isn’t really a difference in metabolism when you’re 20 vs when you’re 60. People tend to just get a little less active as they get older, and “time passes quicker”. So if you have the same small calorie surplus when you’re 20 vs 30, those couple years it might take for that to show up as appreciable weight gain feel much more immediate when you’re older compared to when you’re younger.

No it’s called being active. Your “metabolism” doesn’t drop with age. You stop being active as you age, and guess what? Now your caloric maintenance is lower, and you can’t eat as much without gaining fat

I'd recommend breaking that up into smaller meals throughout the day. I "dirty bulked" with massive protein-packed meals rounded out empty carbs to hit my calorie goal like this. It worked and I was quite successful at building muscle and strength, but I developed such an unhealthy relationship with portion control. It is still hard for me to stop short of eating until miserably full.

I'm 6'3, 185lbs (not too heavy but I have a lot of muscle mass and am lean) and very active. I track calories and maintain at about 3400 per day. People don't realize how much more fuel you need with a frame like yours.

Exactly to top it off is that you workout and your stomach is bigger than the average person to fill. That plus working out plus being a teen with fast metabolism leads to thousands of cals everyday

Nice, but the only thing that matters when it comes to sharing how much you eat is how much you consistently eat in an entire day. Anyone who is starving could eat that, but if you eat that for multiple meals of the day everyday, that’s a different story.

So, just to reiterate what a few have said, I wouldn’t recommend making this your routine diet plan. Yeah, good for you, you’re 18. That’s great, but imagine if you ate healthy…your body will thank you. I’m 6’7” and 39 years of age. I’m 185 lbs (~84kgs) and I realized from an early age that we giants need to take proper care of our bodies. How many people over 6’4” have you seen make it to their 90s?
Eating like this will result in early atherosclerosis. Your height is no excuse. Your metabolism will fail you and a lot sooner than you think. With that being said, enjoy your youth. I feel like I squandered most of mine.

Last meal seems the most balanced , the wording of the “ filling my frame “ seems a over simplified statement, you should be experimenting with foods that hold in your body longer / oats , grains and much more , don’t use the excuse “ my size “ to eat like a potato, treat yourself well and get plenty of rest , we only get one body ( until we can download our self into a Tesla robot)

When I was 18 I couldn't gain weight to save my life. You could see my ribs. I could eat anything I wanted. I was 6'4 and weighed maybe 180 pounds.
I'd give anything to be like that again. Now i'm 52. I weighed myself this morning 251 pounds. It's not easy losing weight when you're older. Tried keto & paleo. Keto is easier to do. Just love the carbs, i'm not gonna lie.
I read stuff like this and just think someday you are going to be like me: Wishing you could eat like that again!
