I'm 5'7 and weigh 102 pounds. I hate the fact that I am skinny. I always eat and eat and eat and I'm definitely not anorexic, bulemic, or whatever. I try to gain weight but it is hard for me. Many people say it is because of my fast metabolism since after I eat a full dinner, dinner,breakfast, I get hungry about 2 hours later and I eat snacks occasionally. I eat as much as everybody else and many people say I eat a lot for a person like me. In fact, I love eating but I just can't seem to gain any weight but I rarely eat junk food because my family doesn't like junk food. I wish I could gain weight somehow because I get really self-conscious about myself and I always hide myself because I look so skinny and I want to wear tank tops like everyone else but I just feel so skinny and I hate it. I just need tips on gaining weight. People say I should eat more but seriously, I DO eat and it's not helping. If there are any natural suggestions on gaining weight, that would be very helpful.

try the protein shakes and power bars that sports people use, they have lots of food value in them.

Have you been to the Dr.? It is best to rule out certain things, that could be health related. But some people are just like that. Some people have a very high metabolism, and can eat what ever they want and never gain a pound. But I would get your family Dr., to confirm that. And perhaps also seeing a natural path Dr., they are more in tune with parasites that may be sapping all of your nutrients, etc.
To be honest it makes us bigger girls jellous. smile.
Also it depends on your age. If you are young, you may find that with age, and hormone changes that you will gain weight, as your metabolism slows down.

properly, i do no longer think of there's a particular weight that's basically too skinny, with the aid of fact rather everyone has distinctive physique varieties. some people may be 5' 7" and 114 lbs and look too skinny, others may be that top and weight and look high quality. If it is your organic weight, i think of it rather is high quality. frequently, i will tell if somebody is obviously very skinny, or in the event that they're weight-reduction plan to make themselves skinny. people who are not clearly skinny look, properly, unnatural. anyhow, forget approximately relating to the people who inform you you would be prettier in case you won 10-15 kilos. needless to say you could no longer help that. i've got had people tell me I ought to lose 10-10 kilos, yet even nonetheless I consume healthily and exercising frequently, I do basically no longer drop extra pounds. some rather everyone seems to be basically rude.
