Just wanted to know if your metabolism can get FASTER as u age? I'm only 18 but I feel like it is faster than ever sense I lost 20 pounds. Maybe I just didn't realize how much I was actually eating before? Or maybe because my job is high stress and constant movement? I'm 5'7 and 130 pounds and for a week of eating about 2500 calories I had LOST 4 pounds??? Now I've been maintaining 130-134 for another week! And every day I have at least 2000 calories

No, it slows down as you age. And with weight loss. It's not a significant decline, though.
You're probably not eating as much as you think if you're losing weight.1
