how to fix my high metabolism?!


Question: How to fix my high metabolism?
How many calories should a typical male in his early 20's intake each day?
I'm 20 years old, 5'8" and 120 lb. I need to eat 3000 calories each day just to maintain that weight (as what I'm seeing on my calorie counter program). It's already painful trying to consume 1500 calories a day for me.
I know I have a high metabolism but yet I never have an appetite throughout the day. Sometimes I cant bare to eat certain, suggested food so usually in this case I would substitute it with a protein shake.

I would kill for high metabolism



Your lucky my friend. Im your weight and i have to stick to around 1600. You dont want that to be fixed. JUST KEEP EATING!!! its not that hard...



You can't change your metabolism. Just eat a lot of high calorie foods. That's pretty much all you can do.
