I'm too skinny How can I gain weight Posted: 10-05-05 11:12am
Hi~
I am yet another woman complaining about
looking too skinny.
I'm a stay at home mom of my 9 year old
daughter who doesn't have me running all
over as most kids do with their parents,
i'm 31 yrs old, naturally active, i'm 5'6
small framed.
I have been at a great 122lbs before &
looked great! This was before I got
pregnant 9 years ago. I have been
struggling with being underweight for
almost 5 years now. I have always been
thin my whole life but not being
underweight.
I am always fluctuating between 103-107
lbs now. I drop weight easy in
1 day if I or if I don't intake the 3
meals plus the in between snacks & my
chocolate milk.
I started drinking chocolate milk. Per
each 2 cups are 420 calories. I drink a
total of 6 cups & thought that would
help.....Nope!
I try to do less to not try to burn off
the weight may have that high metabolism
as well as the others have expressed in
this forum. There has to be a way to gain
that weight somehow... I am so
frustrated!! Ughh
I read what I need to try eating & I
have, but just how much is recommended to
see results. Being underweight can be
seen as a blessing to some, but to those
who "live it" it's horrible.... My self
body image is poor. Help is
appreciated. Thanks to those who respond.
