Answer 1

Ben,you are a teenager. Many teenagers are thin, but they put on weight automatically as they grow older. This is because teenagers have a very high metabolic rate and burn calories fast. So you should not try to put on weight, since it will be difficult to lose this fat later. More information could be found at http://www.toloseweight.org/gainweight.html

Answer 2

Gaining weight is hard to do without getting unhealthy. The solution sounds simple, eat more, but there's a lot of bad food out there. If you get on a weight training program at a gym, and start eating lots of healthy foods (think whole grains, lean meat, raw vegetables) throughout the day, you'll put on muscle.

Don't resort to junk food, that will just make you unhealthy by messing with your sugar levels and cholesterol, and any weight you gain would just be flab.

Answer 3

You are not able to rather make your physique develop taller, you stop developing when you discontinue growing. It is dependent upon genetics. So what if your skinny and brief in your age ? Simply be completely satisfied and grateful for what you've got. Additionally, if you want to achieve weight do not pig out, just tone your physique and dont flip bc your simplest 13 and your physique still has a lot of changes to move through.
