Don't worry, nature catches up with the thin ice cream eaters. I was one of those annoying people in my teens and early twenties. However I am MUCH healthier, stronger and fitter now, although I am fatter too - I started exercise to help lift my depression (I am manic depressive) and although it has not stopped me gaining weight due to crappy diet I am now gaining MUSCLE due to lifting and better diet. Spent 120 mintues flexing in the mirror this morning 
.
The thin ice cream eaters can also easily get heart disease as much as the fat guys. THin does not equal healthy, especially if heart problems and strokes run in the family, which they do for many folks.... stuffing yourself with garbage is bad for you, whether it shows up on yoru gut or not. Same shit in your internal organs, whether you burn it off or not. I am having a cheat day today tho so I am stuffing myself with garbage, but I'm defrosting the chicken for the next 2 days' of meals now...

dont stretch cold muscle
Dont I know it!
The thin ice cream eaters are skinny but I have a different goal now...I want to be muscular. I did want to just be thin...but now that I have been looking...I really didn't notice before...The thin ripped up girls look 10x better. (Plus my boyfriend digs the muscular chicks!)
My life has done a complete 360. I was one of those thin Ice cream eaters before in my teen years too...I was also a smoker, drinker, and I did a lot of other things I shouldn't have. I quit drugs 6 years ago, smoking 2 years ago and the, and the drinking a week ago. I feel better physically than I have in a long time.
Obesity runs in my family so it always seemed inevitable that I would be fat too. I now know that I'll just have to give it 110 percent and I will eventually be where I want to be. I am feeling better about myself already. I find it's like a puzzle and that I can sculpt myself to be what ever I want...so exciting.
Please explain a cheat day (In great detail)...I want one...

A cheat day is exactly that: a day where you cheat on your diet. You plan this to allow your metabolism a boost, give yourself a break mentally, etc. Some athletes do not seem to need one at all (witness Brickgirl's incredible accomplishment) whereas others need them regularly. The reason for planning them is so that you do not go overboard, and so that you do not feel guilting for 'cracking under pressure'.
MS has some excellent posts about this, as well as Par Deus on the diet board.

I couldnt have a cheat day!
If I had cheat day than I would feel like I was sabotaging myself...the guilt alone would depress me. I almost allowed myself to have a York Peppermint Pattie yesterday but...after trying on a pair of jeans I wasn't able to where a month ago and having them about 2 inches to big...I decided to skip the York. My success is giving me will power. The more success I have it seem the more will power I have too. I can totally live with that!

There's going to come a point when your body might cry out for a cheat day to refuel itself and to boost your metabolism. But, I wouldn't waste it on candy. Jump the carbs with some complex carbs, not simple sugars.
Also, give up guilt about eating. Food is what runs your body, and you're in control of what you eat. I think that feeling "good" and "bad" about food and eating is self-destructive. Food's not a punishment nor is it a reward.
