An hour a day of intense physical activity is not much, it makes you feel better about yourself, and it also allows you to not have to starve yourself. Maybe exercise is what these weak-willed people need; they will feel more confident (the body releases adreneline and other chemicals to give a natural high), and they will still be able to eat their burgers and not gain weight, even though they will probably soon stop eatting the burgers because they will be throwing up when they exercise.

From the sounds of it, you've got an extremely fast metabolism that most of us are not blessed with. If I, for example, ate a 2000 calorie shake, the majority of it would quickly be turned to fat. My body simply doesn't process food as quickly as yours.
So, I don't think its really fair to be using yourself and your brothers example and say others are weak willed because they're not in shape like you and your bro.. for some of us, Mcdonalds once or twice a month IS too much, and moderation means *never* eating it.
