Hey,
I'm looking to put on around a stone being a nine stone (exactly) 17 year old.
I'd say I eat the average amount most teenagers do, and the probably the same amount of crap (junk food.) However, all my friends seem to me much more robust than me.
No matter how much I eat I can't seem to shift of that nine stone mark on the scales.
Am I eating the wrong foods? I run twice a week - should I take that out of my regime?

It's just your metabolism I'm sure, enjoy it while you've got it. One day you'll be sitting in your office resting a donut on your beer belly wishing you had it back : (

You are 17.Many teenagers are very 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 by eating fatty food, since it may be difficult to lose this fat later.

well, we have the same problem. maybe because in our genetics. but they say, we are blessed.
i guess its fine with me not to gain weight that fast than being robust yet sickly. :D
