Issues with my weight?

I am not the same as you my friend is though she is quite skinny and eats like a pig all day I think its most likely you have a fast matazalim or your always jumping around or if you are a growing alot at the moment.

Exercise and i'm not kidding exercise moderatlyand eat fruit and veg promise

WELL YOUR GOING ABOUT IT IN THE WRONG WAY,MY BROS FIANCE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND SHE WAS DOING WAT U R EATING FULL MEALS AND REALIZED IT WAS NOT WORKING SO HER DOCTOR TOLD HER TO START TAKING SOME FIBER I EVERY DAY WITH MILK AND WORKOUT AND SHE GAINED WEIGHT IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES AND SHE WAS NOT FAT OR SKINNY SHE WAS WHERE SHE WANTED TO BE WEIGHT WISE .

Hey man, I had the same problem as you. I am 5'9 and use to weight about 110 for a few years but these last few months I've gone up to 130. This is how I did it. Keep eating what you already eat and don't stop, if not eat more. Eat till you want to barf but don't push it. Keep a tough schedule of your meals and stick to it. If you feel like you cannot eat anymore, eat calorie dense foods like peanut butter. If you're eating sandwiches don't go light on mayo. And last and finally, if you're looking for slow steady weight gain, drink 3-4cups of whole milk a day on top of your meals(Add chocolate if you want an extra 300-400 calories, doesn't hurt right?). If you're looking for fast weight gain although this is pricey, buy those 350cal shakes you can get from stores like ensure/boost plus/equate. Drink 3shakes a day and that is about 2200calories you're adding in to your diet just from drinks.


People say you have a fast metabolism but that is only partially true. The real fact of the matter is that you are not taking in enough calories for your body gain fat. You are probably taking in less calories than you actually think you are. I thought the same as you as i use to eat multiple snacks and 3large meals throughout the day but wasn't putting on any weight. Then a friend told me that it wasn't my metabolism that was stopping me, it was that I simply wasn't eating enough and not choosing my calories wisely(he works out). So what I want you to know is that it's not metabolism, you aren't doomed, you can fight this. All it takes is DEDICATION. DO NOT stop, do not eat less, eat more, do not stop drinking the whole milk no matter who repulsive it is, do not stop drinking the shakes. I have actually stopped drinking the shakes and am just maintaining my weight through my regular meals and milk. When you gain more weight you need to take in more calories to maintain that weight. I will return to the shakes in the future when I am ready to gain again but I am taking a break from it after 2monthes(very expensive). 7dollars for 6small shakes. GOOD LUCK!

You most likely have a high Basal Metabolic rate.

Fill out this calculator: http://home.fuse.net/clymer/bmi/
Then record your BMR.

To gain weight you need to eat approximately 500-1000 more calories than you burn a day.


If you still have problems go see your doctor and ask about going on weight gainers

Same with me... people ALWAYS comment on how skinny i am... my class year actually thought i was anorexic. I was so embarrassed about that so i started making a point to eat more than anyone in my class... but once i started eating more... i actually started losing more weight.. Then everyone bought i threw up everything i ate.. i felt so bad so i went to the doctor... he checked me for any desises or whatever and i was fine.. he said that i and just skinny because of my mom.. who is also tall and skinny... That made me feel better knowing i had nothing wrong with me maybe u should go to the doctor... if u have soothing wrong w/ u they can help.. and if u don't... well.. ill feel better knowing that u are fine

Well exercise can actually help. Just search on Google for some strength exercises. It will build up your muscle (which is good).
It is mostly because you have a fast metabolism. If you don't feel comfortable with your weight, yes, go talk to your doctor.

You just have a fast metabolism!!! x

I know EXACTLY what your going through. Because i live with that everyday i eat lots of food meals, i snack ALL day. Its NOT a problem. some people have "skinny" genetics example: both sides of my family are all very skinny. And if its not that perhaps you have a high metabolism, or you could be ADD or ADHD (me!) and you just burn through food faster. But don't worry to much about it. You're skinny. If you really want to put on weight though (helped me FINALLY reach my goal as a freshman) drink lots of protein shakes and work out (muscle weighs more than fat) it helped me as a freshmen FINALLY reach 90 pounds.
hope this helps, but dont worry to much, its just how your body is so be PROUD!

Have you tried this??

Your not going to gain weight by eating more frequently.....you have a fast metabolism... and all eating more often will do is keep it running at optimal effeciancy
In order to put on weight you need eat and do things that will slow down your metabolism.
You need to do a light version of what sumo's do.

When you wake up in the morning... Forget breakfast....Just drink fluids...a few cups of tea or just drink fluids... water..water..water.... Dont go without drinking anything because then your stomach will shrink and when it comes time to eat you wont be able to eat as much.

For breakfast either drink fluids... or eat Very,Very little... something lite

tell us your age please because u are quite tall for a very young person. are u 16, 17, 18+
visit your doctor first
then consider what u are eating. eat some meat (are u vegetarian-is that why?)
I was so skinny but then they told me to put fat on my stick thin arms but now its all gone 2 my thighs and tummy. Im getting rid of it. Don't know how to put fat on places i want them to be. But im not overweight or anything so im fine. i get dizzy just talking about it. Weight is weird.............

There's nothing wrong with you, you just have a very fast metabolism! Try to eat alot of protein! And try to exercise just a little more. Do some crunches, squats, pushups, walk. Ten when your done doing some exercise drink a protein shake to feed your muscles.

you have a fast metabolism. try eating like chinese food or something

Good metabolism. Lucky you.

i think you are just stressed out

To be honest I would start eating different now. It will eventually catch up to you. My brother is the came way and he's starting to show. Don't take it for granted. If your still worried then see a doctor and get professional advice.

You give your height and weight, but not your age. Assuming that you are under 18, possibly under 15, then the first thing is to put your mind at rest. Every one and every body has a unique metabolism and part of growing up is development. Yes, you are quite lucky. Unlike many girls, gorging or eating regular meals can cause all sorts of problems. You have very little to worry about. But exercising will not make you lose weight, it will merely toughen you up a little and may ensure that your small frame achieves a bit of strength. Equally important, it is not how much you eat which counts but exactly what you are eating. Developing along normal lines requires a healthy balanced diet and you may benefit from some dietary advice on this. But do not let this stress you out (stress can prevent weight gain and cause weight loss). In time you will fill out a little but may always be slight. That has advantages and disadvantages, but is more advantageous by far than being overweight. So worry not, enjoy life, eat healthily and study hard. Time will tell you when you have reached your 'normal' weight/height etc.

Smoke pot. Doctors prescribe it to people who have trouble eating, If your serious about it take it into consideration.

you have fast metabolism. so, try a disciplined and high intensity weight training regime. you will need a high calorie intake diet and to replenish your body with good quality protein. Generally deadlifts are excellent for building body muscle mass
