    Hi,
    I'd get yourself checked out at the docs as there could be a underlying problem.

    6 stone is far too light in my eyes.

    Tweety is right, you need a proper weighing and a medical checkup.

    I'm skinny too and it annoys me when larger peeps say how lucky I am, yeh sooooo lucky that clothes hang off me, it just looks horrible I think. And I eat loads too, it's different peoples metabolisms.

    And they'll just tell you that there's nothing wrong and you're naturally skinny. I'm 22, 5ft3 and I weigh just under 7stone. I've been this weight my whole life and I eat loads. The doctors said there's nothing wrong and nothing I can do, it's just natural.

    I know it's horrible. I hate getting random ppl coming up to me and saying 'God your so skinny'....don't think they'd dare say that to a fat person would they? :rolleyes: Sorry I cant help more, but you're not alone and there's nothing wrong with you.

    Thats not neccessary true, for instance i have an underactive thyroid & if its too high or too low it affects my weight, i can't do much about it. Mind you they don't like doing this test as it costs alot of money.:rolleyes:
    Up to you but i'd get it checked out.

    i used to be like you lot. skinny, underwieght and able to eat utter crap as much as i wanted. i hated it and wanted to be bigger. now i am bigger and i want to look like i used to. the only problem with being bigger is that i have celulight. and i didnt have that before so im gonna do my best to get skinny again just to get rid of it.

    there's nothing wrong with being "skinny". i'm 5'8 and around 54 kilos. by definition i'm underweight, but thats not a problem as long as i'm helathy and it doesn't affect my day to day life.

    my two cents

    hey i know how u all feel, i'm a recovering anorexic, so yeah i know how it feels to be told u skinny all the time, and it doesn't help when people tell u how lucky u are to be skinny when u are trying to beat an eating disorder.

    but hey now i'm just over 50 kg and for me that's not so bad. i'm 5'9 and a bit.

    kally:D

    Jeez you're all really light...

    Anyway, having gained two stone in about 3 months I reckon I'm qualified to help you! Eat loads of bread, bacon sandwiches, cheese toasties etc as snacks, pasties are good, as are any pies and anything fried (obviously), eat loads of chocolate and drink shit-loads of lager. And eat lots of cake. Worked a treat for me. :D

    p.s. I've lost it now! Didn't like being overweight.

    im 5'8" and weigh 7 1/2 stone, I like being the way I am, apart from my boobs, doesnt it just totally suck that being skinny = tiny boobs, I sometimes think i'll put on weight just to see if they get bigger, but then I dont think i'd want to be fatter anywhere else!

    hehe I know what you mean!! I'm not flatchested but cos I'm so small so are my boobs, though I'm all in proportion which is good. But I'd gladly put on weight if it'd mean my boobs would grow too!! But thats easier said than done! lol ;) :rolleyes:

    I'm 5ft 7, and weigh about 7 stone. I eat more than anyone i know and don't put on any weight. I'm happy though, it just means my body has a good metabolism.

    You should be happy as you are. as long as you ain't getting ill then it's cool.

    :)

    Im about 5'7 and im under weight as well. i also hate it when people are like wow ur so skinny, im like dude shut up. Or i hate it when people are like.."u need to eat!"(as a joke) but i always get mad, and the thing is i DO eat soo much.. its just the way my body is.

    But one thing i kno, is Work Out alot, i do tons of sports, and with my muscles looking bigger from it, people dont think im as skinny as i was!

    _Nelly_:heart:

    I'm pretty slim and am very happy with myself. I do think if people have a problem then they need to do something about it in order to feel happier about themselves. :)

    Ive been a skinny runt all my life but im finally starting to add some pounds. Started a new high-protein diet. Im eating loads of the following:

    Tuna
    Peanut Butter
    Cottage Cheese
    Chicken
    Milk

    Takes dedication cos im eating like every 3 hours but it'll be worth it in the long run.

    Regards.

    Im good on how to gain weight,
    eat lots of cheese, food that doesnt crunch doesnt fill you up as much, larger is great to add weight as is coke. oh yheh and peanuts they have to be one of the most fattiest natural foods
    hope that that helps**

    there's high protien diets to put on weight, and there's a fast track to a heart attack. can YOU see the difference?:crazyeyes

    I've heard of a pill that you can take that makes your boobs grow bigger without putting on weight anywhere else. Dunno what it's called though. It's something my gf saw.

    People who are overweight are always saying how they wish they were thin, and everyone else seems to think being underweight is amazing.

    Well its not, just like being overweight it affects your confidence and can get you down.

    Everything in this world is all about losing weight, just look at foods and it will tell you how "low in fat" it is or how its only "xx calories"

    I hate being a lanky streak. :(
