Hello, my name is Sam. There's a lot that I can say about myself, but if you'd like that then you could always message me and we can have a nice cup of tea together :D
I am not very old, so I might not have too much life experience, but I do like to help people. I know that life often throws unexpected blows at people, but I am so extremely optimistic. Hopefully some of my optimism will rub off on the people to whom I am giving advice. I am happy to help with anything! :)

okay so basically i work out everyday..my friend doesnt. we both weigh similar weights.
my questions are:
why does she look heavier than me if we're close in weight?
why do people who work out weigh more but look thin?
i feel fat sometimes because everyone is so thin..yet, i work out a lot so i weight, of course, a little more. everyone says i look good. but..idk..i guess it just makes me feel bad about myself that i cant be that thin because i want to be healthy and work out.
is there a way to work out and still like be at a low weight?
i know these are stupid questions..
but, thanks in advance to anyone who answers me. (link)

Hey.
You are heavier because muscle weighs more than fat. I get how you feel. I used to run a lot and do a lot of exercise back when I was in a physical education class at school. Ever since I stopped taking p.e. I've lost quite a bit of weight. However, my muscles aren't as toned now and although I weigh less, I still look the same.
Your friend doesn't work out so even though she weighs almost the same as you, her weight is mostly fat. And you look thinner because you have less body fat and more muscle mass. I hope that makes sense. You definitely sound healthy so I wouldn't worry about the amount you weigh. When you are walking down the street, no one is going to see the number of pounds you are, but rather how your body looks.
Take care.
