Hi....This is probably something no one
ever hears...But I have problems gaining
weight...To me this is a very serious
issue...I am about 5'5 and 90 lbs....That
is not a healthy weight for my height....I
eat and all..My boyfriend says I eat more
than him...Lol...I have never made myself
throw up or anything...I just can't gain
weight...And I hate it,i eat all fatty
things...Like micky d's and fast food,but
still have problems...

Hi girlfriend! You must come from a
family whose metabolism is in high gear!
This could be a hereditary thing. Have
you ever tried protein powder? Mix it
two-three times a day with milk. The
mcdonalds crap is no good for you! You
need to be eating healthy! Lots of lean
protein, vegetables, fruits and
breads/grains!!! I know, sound like a mom
huh? I am! In 4 years I will be 50, but
I look 30! And I ate like i'm
20!!!!!!Life is good! Do you work out?
Have you ever considered weight training?
My husband and I love it. At least you
are not fat with high blood pressure and
other health issues! Hope i've helped
some, at least I tried!!!!! Good luck
sweetie!

Fairy godmother is right, just because you
are very thin, don't go eating a bunch of
crap. You can still have a heart attack
ya know. Yeah, try those protein shakes
and weight gainers and such that you can
get at fitness and vitamin stores. If
none of the above works, they do have
prescription medications that will help
you gain weight. Also, if not already on
it, you could try birth control. It may
sound silly, but along with a lot of other
benefits, a lot of people gain weight when
they first start taking it.
