Bodies not all created equal
DEAR DR. BLONZ: How is it that people with similar caloric intakes can end up with such different weights? Three of my best friends and I have been exercising together on and off for about 10 years. We went through school together, went out for the same sports, and at the time we had similar body types with similar heights and weights. On an agreement made this past new year, we began to measure our caloric intakes, checking online food composition tables. To our surprise, we found that we eat just about the same number of calories every day. Despite all this, our weights and body shapes have changed, in some cases rather dramatically. It was frustrating for me, as I have one of the larger waistlines in the group. - F.S., Chicago, Ill.
