I have the same exact problem. I'm 5'8'' and 105. It's SO hard to gain weight, and people just don't understand that. Also, there are just as many, if not more, stereotypes for skinny girls as there are for overweight girls. It's just that people don't feel the need to camoflauge their opinions on our bodies. How many times can you hear "Oh my gosh, you're so skinny!!!," or "Geeze... eat something! You're skin and bones" without letting your self esteem go down? Anyway, I heard that you should eat before you go to bed at night. I'm trying it and I hope that it works!

You want to eat things that are full of complex carbohydrates. Maybe added proteins too. Yogurt, tuna, maybe you can add one of those "meal replacement" drinks to your breakfast foods. This will add up your calorie count...and not be so high in sugar content. I also am 5' 7" and I am way past 102. Have you considered having some blood work done to check your thyroid?? Sometimes if the thyroid is over active...it can reduce your ability to gain weight. Just an idea. Good Luck

OK that weight is not normal, especially for your height...have u tried eggs...make your self omelets, they r good for u and they recently did a study and found that they do not raise your cholesterol...so omelets with lots of veggies and ham or sausage...protein shakes...talk to your doctor and see if he/she will refer u to a nutritionist....good luck and i hope u put some weight on
