Do people really talk about their metabolism that much? Or are some people just so self-conscious about their weight and eating habits that they place particular weight on those comments such that they appear to be more frequent than they actually are?

What a helpful response!
Gee, I’m sure glad I came to the comments to quell my confusion.
Have you never met somebody with a fast metabolism?
