Hey I just need to know is it bad to be a junk food junkie I am about 5'7 and weigh 98-102lbs. I eat all the time normal food and junk food. But when I eat my normal meals every day I get full real quick but I cacn continue to eat junk food. Is it me? I have been to the doctor I am perfectly healthy with nothing wrong. Is it just a mind setting. Also, I drink tons of big red is the "red" bad for my body?

I don't know very much about Big Red.

Healthy food is high in nutritional value. Junk food is not. Your body needs a minimum of good nutrition for it to keep functioning properly.

You will see the bad results to your body eventually, if you continue to eat a lot of junk food. Consuming small amounts, now and then, is not bad.

Well you are really skinny. You sound too skinny actually cuz Im 5'5 and 125 lbs i cant imagine how sick i would look if i was 102 and u are taller than me girl! I think you need to start eating healthier because right now your not at a healthy weight. Junk food is bad for you especially if you eat it alot!!! You need to gain some weight and if your genes make your metabolism run that fast then thats not something you can help. What i dont understand is how you are so skinny!!! lol

your metabolism will definitely slow down as you age. I am 5'6". In college I weighed 108, and could eat whatever and not gain a pound. I ate my meals, but then munched on junk food a lot in between. I thought big deal. Well now that I am in my mid 30's my metabolism has slowed down considerably and I still really struggle with the junk food. I now weigh about twice what I did in college. Believe me when I say you better kick this habit now, the longer you keep it up the harder it gets to kick.
