Hello... thanks for this query... you know the metabolic system in everyone is not the same ... we know about adipose tissue (fat tissue)... there are two types white and brown adipose tissue .. people with more of brown fat will not gain weight ... the calories are lost as such in the form of heat ... well it really depends on the proportion of brown/white fat ... more brown fat in gifted people who take food with out gaining much of weight !!!! may be you are one of them ... as long as you are healthy you need not worry about eating more .. gaining more weight etc.. we need to be fit and healthy ..take care do contact us for any doubts .. thank you
