Answer 3

There's nothing you can do about it really. Your metabolism will eventually slow down on it's own in time. And then you'll probably realize that you took your fast metabolism for granted!

Answer 4

The thing is the more you eat the faster your metabolism gets because it works harder to digest your food.  The key is to eat large amounts of food long intervals away from each other.  Also, working out increases your metabolism.

Answer 5

Oh no, don't complain about that.  Enjoy it while you have it.  When you're 30 and all your friends are fat and you're fit and trim you'll be grateful.

Answer 6

by just sitting on your a**.  : )

Answer 7

I wish I had your problem!

There's medications that will slow it.  Also, make sure the vitamins you're taking aren't speeding up your metabloism

Answer 8

It's actually just your age. Most people's metabolism slows down by their 20's. If you want to slow it down though, you need to talk to a dietician. A dietician can tell you what would make your body react differently to the foods and the amounts of protien, iron, vitamins, etc. People here on Yahoo Answers sometimes do have good advice, but where health is concerned it is always best to see a doctor so that YOUR specific situation can be assessed. You need to know the different levels of certain protiens and vitamins in your body to determine what would help you gain/lose weight.
