how can i put on weight?!?

Question

i have had no period since oct/nov 2006 and this is probably because i am 6 stone/40 kilos. i am 156cm tall and 19 - apparently severely underweight.

i eat lots of junk food (chocolate and chips and sweet biscuits) plus healthy foods like sandwiches and juice. i cant get my weight above 43 kilos. it just goes in an instant. i went to the drs a few months ago. nothing is wrong with my thyroid. maybe a fast metabolism.

this has made me very depressed and i often get comments like "go to hospital" and you're anorexic". I AM NOT ANOREXIC!

i dont want to be this way. i want to get my period back so i can have kids and feel like a normal woman again.

can someone please help me??

Answer 1

Sandwhiches and juice are good for you, but they don't help you put on weight. You need to eat starches and proteins. Have big bowls of pasta with meat sauce, soups, and bread. There are snack bars made to help you gain weight. Have your doctor reccomend some for you. Good luck!

Answer 2

hi there I just found out that one of my daughters has not got her menstruation for about a year I've just made her an appiontment to see a gyn doctor. I talk to a friend about this and this is what she told me concering another friend who also gets her menstruation every year. yes she says it has to do with the metablism also that the cells act in a men manner not in a female kind of way . but of cause she is not a doctor so I tell you my friend forget what people tell you do not get mad people are humans and they all have one thing in common gossip about another human being let's just call it envy . What you have to do is go see your gyn doctor they will run some test and about the weight if you eat try 3 meals a day eat healthy foods fresh fruits ,veg, grains too much sweets are not good for u it can turn into diabetes do not try to gain too much it is also bad for your health but what every diet you want to take you have to talk to your medical doctor first and always stay with one doctor so that you will not go through the same test every time . you are a normal woman never feel that your not and do not tell everyone you know your life story they will just take it back and slam it in your face . you take care be good be safe

well, just be glad that you are too skinny and not too big.. they have these candy bars that some football players eat that makes you gain weight. they always tell the boys that are supposed to gain weight to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. drink pop.
