Healthy eating weight gain Posted: 06-26-07 04:27am
i am 17 yrs old around 5'7-8 tall and
weigh 115 lbs on average. i try to gain
weight but can't seem to be motivated
enough to, and even if i am, i won't be
able to eat. my eating pattern is soo out
of order. the first meals around 2 or 3
pm, then once more at 5-6 and the last
"meal" is around midnight when my mom
comes home. so hopeless... and
i feel like i'm the only one who has this
problem around here

Have you done anything about this yet? Can
I suggest you try to drink some broth in
the morning or something that is liquid
with perhaps some protein in it. You need
to start gradual and then your eating
pattern will change. Also go see a
naturopath they can help you with your
situation and find that what works for
you. Keep us informed on how you are
doing.

ok. so I'm your age except I'm not as
tall.. I'm 5"5.
When I use to live with my mom, I had the
same problems. I would skip meals and eat
most during 12pm, and 1-2AM when I had
dinner with my mom ( business women ) and
so.. the thing is. I have problems with
weight. My eatting habits are soo out of
order and I'm actually pretty big compare
to you. I weigh 140-144 lbs. I think both
of our goals are to distribute meals in a
more healthy time frame, and eat the right
amount of veggies, meats, and dairy. Maybe
you should meassure out the foods you eat
to make sure you're getting enough protein
and such.. ? It sounds to me that you're
just not eatting enough.. I met up with a
nutritionist and she told me that since
I'm eatting so irregular that I make up
meals during dinner time and I go to sleep
right away.. so that's why I'm chubbier. I
don't know.. but yeah you're not the only
one with irregular eatting habits.
