So, when you eat a lot, you get taller. You starve yourself, you become very short (not to the dwarf level, but to a noticeable extent). There is no such thing as obesity and anorexia in this universe. You would have the same (average) body.

Would this have been a better "alternative" over gaining & losing mass/weight? Thoughts?

I like us the way we are. And this is coming from a guy who has always wished for a couple more inches of height.

That would be insane. I could see some people eating until they become as tall as Godzilla. LOL
