What do you think? I am 17 and 5'2" & 85 pounds?

Question

I am 17 years old and 5'2", 85 pounds. Everyone says I need to gain weight (I am 25 pounds underweight according to the "charts"). Do you think that's too skinny? I do not believe so because I think that I am only 85 pounds because I am short. But I also have big boobs too (C cup, natural). What do you think?

I just want to point out that i DO eat. I love food! Especially fast food like taco bell, burger kind, etc. Of cousre there are times, just like everyone else, when I "diet" to maintain my wieght.

Answer 3

85 pounds is really low. I'm only 5'1" and have always been considered very skinny, but I've weighed at least 100 pounds since I was probably 15 or 16. Talk to your doctor about it, see what they think. If they tell you you're fine, you are. If they suggest it's unhealthy (which I suspect it may be based on knowledge and the BMI charts), ask what you can do to be healthier. Your health should be number one on this issue.

Answer 4

You may have a problem being underweight. One thing you could do is eat normally and also drink a couple slimfast cans a day. With regular eating they help you gain weight. You could also eat a lot of carbs, that may help.

It is best though to consult your doctor. Really at 17 your body is still changing so it may be normal for you.

Answer 7

yes. you should gain weight.

i am 24 5'4" and 120 pounds and i am 5 to 10 pounds underwieght. with the same upperchest problem.

if you gain 15 pounds more but workout at the same time you will look appropriately built.

also, if you try more of homemade foods/healthy foods instead of fast food it will help you build and maintain the healthy weight.
