I have taken thyroid medication since I was 13, I'm almost 53. Still thin, not skinny anymore.

As a teenager, things are going to change dramatically as you mature. Get a good checkup, a complete blood workup, every year or so. Eat healthy, with plenty of fresh fruits & veg, brown rice, baked potato...avoid fad foods & drugs of any kind. You're still growing, don't do anything to throw things out of balance. Things will "level out" in time if you'll just be patient.

One other thing - please STOP paying attention to anyone who doesn't know you or your situation who say mean things. Lots of people get a real thrill out of meanness, but you'll be better off to ignore them.

hey i suffer from the same thing. I was 5'7 and 106 lbs. Could not gain weight for the life of me. I started making sure i was taking at least 2000 calories a day. Keep a snack of some kind on you, try to never let yourself get really hungry. All the foods listed on the comment below is major stuff i was told to eat. Extra condiments on my food, keep nuts on u they r great for a snack...very high in calories. olive oil and drink stuff that has calories to it. if ur a big water drinker...drink tea, koolaid or add crystal lite pack to it. I also drank the carnation breakfast once or twice a day. Its a powder u find in the cereal aisle that u mix with milk. Taste like chocolate milk. I also took a multi vitamin everyday. After a cpl weeks I was on my way to weight gain.

Are you too anxiety? Are you too anxious? Are your metabolism clock too fast?
Don't you see that married man get fat very quick. So find a cozy life for you and you'll lose some of that weight soon. Be lazy~~

i am the same i am 15 and am 5,11 and the correct weight of someone this hight is 10.9 stone or something and i weigh 8.8. i feel sick when i look in the mirror i have my bones sticking out and my ribs are horrible. i have been looking at weight gain shakes to buy off the internet. they give you 650 calories a day.

hope this has helped

I am 16 and about 130lb, my wrist are skinny i can touch my thumb with my index, middle and ring finger(not all at once) and my fore arms are not really that big either. I really don't like to lift but alot of my friends do and there bigger in size and weight but not height, i am about 5' 11". its not that im a nerd or afraid of lifting but i tried it and i use to due it before track but i really didn't gain muscle or weight. i eat ALOT and yet gain nothing. for the past month i have stayed at 127lb, i don't get it?

What are you eating? How many calories?

Sometimes its not enough to just eat a lot; you need to be eating the right stuff.

Im not sure, but I really don't eat like junk food alot(pop, chips, pizza) and i am an athletic person

im 18 yrs old, 5'8'' and 110 lb. i have been 110 for the past 2 years. Before, ever since i was a little kid i always gained exactly 5 pounds every single year, but now i stopped gaining weight!!! I've always been exceptionally skinny, but i eat healthy and everything..i have a high metabolism. I dance ballet so i exercise daily, but im not anorexic. but because i do "ballet" everyone thinks i have an eating disorder, which is so annoying because i actually think that im too skinny and try to gain weight, which doesn't really work. but i eat healthy, exercise etc.i eat junk food like any normal person. Both of my parents were very skinny and my sister who is taller than and older is only 115 lb and doesn't do literally anything. so im naturally skinny. i guess i need a post-it on my head that says "im not anorexic"

please don't rush. try to do it as slowy and blanced as you can.
too fast can harm your week body.

Hey I think you have been smoking a little too much...not advisable I know people who first gain weight and then became extremely skinny not to mention delusional

The new nick name that I was just given makes me feel so sad. I know there are lots of women out there that would love to be as skinny as me. But I am 5'3" and 96lbs. I have had 1 kid and I am 26 years old. It is really hard for me to find clothes. I have to shop in the kids section and try to find something without sparkles on it is impossible. I can't gain weight no matter what I do. I eat all the time! I have been accused of using drugs, being balimik. I have lost jobs over it caused they have assumed that I use drugs because of my age and I have had a kid. I have recently had my weight up to 106. But I got a cold for a few days and lost it. It took me 4 months to get that much weight on. I don't like to complain about it cause there are so many people out there that have over weight issues. But what about the people that have under weight issues. It is just as hard for us to gain as it is for over weight people to loose.

i am 17 years old im 5 feet tall and weigh 91 pounds my friends think im to skinny are they right???

hii im new and i've been reading all the post and i have the same problem. Im like 95 pounds...and 5''3' and i tried to eat alot to gain wait but i stay the same. my friends and family would point out im skinny and i try not to get mad but it offends me. i try to be happy with my body and everything but more ppl point it out. so i rlly want to know how to get more fat.

hey, i just wanted to say tht the right way to gain weight, is to eat proeperly, and tht would b: a protein, carb, fruit and veggie at every meal. Then u should exercise lightly to keep u from losing a nice shape. I also have a tip; go to a nutritionist, they know the right dosages and everything, they will know exactly what to do.
