I'm 14 years old, 5'2, and weigh 85 lb. When I was 13 I was 72 pounds so I have definately gained some but I don't know where because I don't look any better. I guess I just have a REALLY high metabolism because I eat alot.

Girl, don't go eating a bunch of junk food to gain weight, you'll feel very tired and gross. Get some healthy stuff that'll put some weight on. I've heard bananas helps get your butt plumper, also noodles have lots of carbs, and potatos too. Meat has protein that should help put on the pounds. Oh, and eggs too. They have lots of vitamins so they're good for you too!

Eat when you are hungry and eat what your body tells you that it wants. Avoid the concept of stuffing yourself with wasted calories (junk food). You could easily wind up with a pot belly on a slim frame. That would not look good. Relax. You will reach the ideal weight for your system. Honest. I used to have to eat 6,000 calories a day (close to that of a lumberjack) just to hold onto my 127 pounds at 5'10", so I understand the concept of a high metabolism. I also did not need a blanket in winter because my body threw off so much heat. Eventually, I did gain weight, although it took the removal of half my thyroid due to a (thankfully benign) tumor.

like somebody said, exercise more. muscle weighs twice as much as fat, and it will also give you that toned look. i wouldnt NOT recommend eating a bunch of junk food because even though you're thin, its still really unhealthy for your heart and body. if you insist on eating much more, try eating things that are at least semi-healthy.. like fruit pies or something that won't totally kill you in the process. hope this helps!

urm.... actually, excserise more. Muscles weigh more than fat, so... if you gain a lot of muscle, you would weigh more, as well as getting rid of the fat. Or you could NOT excersise, and gain weight that way, becuase over tim your metabolism would go down.

Eating 4-5 times a day would deinately help! Make sure you eat lots of protein!

I'd recommend eating foods high in protein to build muscle (you won't end up "muscle-bound", just healthier. I bet you will put on more weight as you get older; I wouldn't worry about it.
