Answer 1

My sister-in-law is very thin, she has been drinking protein shakes and lifting weights for her arms.

Answer 2

Next time you go to your doctor ask them about it, or schedule an appointment about it.
This is sort of a pinnacle of irony since most people want to lose weight, not gain it.
Also as you go through more puberty, I'm sure your body will develop fat in more places that it is needed.
Just be careful going about gaining weight. I had a friend who was incredibly slim, and she wanted to gain weight when she was around 13, so she started eating in between meals and such and she also matured more, and she did get a little thicker, and now she has horrible self esteem issues even though she is still pretty skinny.

It could just be normal for your body. You can't force your body into changing your metabolism. But don't worry, when you get older.. you will balance out and you'll gain fat in all the right places. But to add healthy weight.. first ask your doctor if you should be worried about your size and then think about how you can in a healthy way, gain the weight you want. Dont' take any pills or anything until you ask your doctor.

Hi Sweetie,
R Dr. cud have ordered this 4 U. It's called ENSURE which comes in a can r case. They have several flavour's, but I stuck 2 Vanilla r Strawberry, it's like a milkshake when cold. I can't remember if there was a limit 2 how many per day, but I don't think there is. Lots of Vitamens & whatever they put in it to fatten me up at 90lbs. U can get it at WalMart r any drug store, I jus thot WalMart wud be cheaper 4 U? U may find it in other dept. stores like that one, but it's the best tasting drink u cud ask 4 if u HAVE 2 take one!!!!!!!!!!! lol

LOL, Diana D
PS There's another one called Boost never tried it cud taste like **** so stick 2 Ensure, at least u know what r getting & u can add fruit 2 it r spices & put it in the blender>

Answer 5

Yeah, you probably want to gain some extra lbs. though!!! you are way too skinny(no offense)!! And GAINING weight is easy!!! All you have to do is eat alot! it doesn't neccessary mean you have to eat junk food but you should eat like ALOT of food like 5 meals a day! And don't worry about excersising, just sit on the couch, watch T.V., etc and you will gain weight in no time at all!! THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO TRY TO EAT ALOT AND DON'T WORRY ABOUT MEDICINE OR EXCERSISE AT ALL!!!
p.s. i weigh 94 or 95 lbs.(i think), 5 ft. 3 inches, and i am 13 yrs. old!!! i always go on a 2-3 mile jog almost everyday and i eat alot of healthy stuff so i keep my weight balanced at all times!!! i eat a big breakfast(ex: peanut butter and toast, bowl of fruit, a glass of milk, and a muffin.), eat a small healthy lunch(ex: grilled chicken salad, half a tuna sandwich, skim milk, and some HEALTHY cookies or corn chips, i make my own lunch and don't usually eat in the cafeteria.), have a nice YUMMY snack(ex: granola bars, pretzels, yogurt, vegetable, OR crackers.), eat a big dinner(ex: pork chops w/ rice and veggies, bowl of vegetable soup, mashed potatoes and FAT-FREE gravy, and for dessert, a slice of chocolate cake, pie, or ice cream sundae,) i eat all healthy stuff(except for dessert)and i am always active! SO REMEMBER TO EAT ALOT!!!

Answer 6

I'm 20 now and I have never weighed a three digit number in my life. Don't feel bad. I have the same problem wanted to gain the weight just in certain areas. It might just be that like me you have a fast metabolism. Try eating more red meats.

Answer 7

If you are already eating a well balanced diet, just eat bigger portions. You didn't say how tall you are. 5' -100lb. add 5 lb. for each inch over 5'. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables, lean meats, drink milk with all 3 meals.
Your local county health dept. will have a nutritionist who comes in. You might consider going in for a check up. They can help you with a plan that would be best for you!
Good Luck!

Answer 8

wow a girl complaining about being fat! who knew? ok so im a runner and have been forever. i eat what i want when i want and run everyday. i have a normal metabolism, which is probably be ur problem. its genetics, and u cant help it. ive gotta friend who is like u, skinny and tall (ur tall right?) anyways, she went to the doctors and he told her to gain weight. he gave her this name of a drink, its like some milkshake. i cant remember the name, but go to ur doctors and tell them u want to gain weight. its actualy unhealthy to be so thin.. but word of advice, if ur a runner, THANK THE LORD ur soo skinny. u can make it sooo far with drive and motivation. im a runner, and im not fat. im just regular weight, but im not skinny for a runner, and i want to drop the weight to get better times, but its sooo hard. so just keep that in mind. btw ur body fat percentage is 14 1/2 if ur like 5' 4" (in just guessing)

Answer 9

I FEEL THE SAME WAY!! but i weigh 90 && im 5' so i prolly look bigger than u.....&& I dont know about u but i hate it when people say ""aww ur so skinny"" or ""I wish I was that skinny"" anything like that. i mean its mean to call fat people fat so how is it any different calling us skinny people skinny? anyways I eat 24/7 and i cant gain weight either!! so ive just learned to like my body and the way i look... && i also wear tight i mean really tight jeans so it gives me more butt and bigger thighs so i dont feel as skinny...... and i wear tight shirts with a push up bra so it makes me feel a bit fat but skinny too. so its like i dunno just get a whole new wardrobe that is tight so it makes u fatter cuz u feel like its too tight and u cant move LOL. but i definitly LOVE the way i look now... hehe sorry that i didnt answer ur question but i wouldnt try to get ""fatter"" cuz u wont look good that way..... ur prolly meant to be skinny not fat like me...well anyways hope that helps even a little in making u feel like u DONT need to gain weight.... and learn to love the way u r... yeah thats sounds korny but its true.....[[[im 14 too]]]

Answer 10

A trip to the Dr. is in order,you might have a medical condition that is keeping you from gaining weight,if there isn't a medical problem the Dr. might send you to a nutritionist,who will work with you to make a plan that will help you gain the weight that is healthy for you.

Answer 11

hm... well, first thing is NEVER try to gain weight in a hurry, and second NEVER use any scientific method unless absolutely necessary. Okay, so you shouldn't eat junk food for that isn't GOOD for you. Since you only wish to get average sized, try to eat breakfast, lunch, dinner-- all three. Everyday! Plus, don't leave yourself hungry!
