Dude, i'm really skinny.
How do i gain weight? I tried eating a lot .. and i dont even gain weight. i got tired of it. My arms are like twigs. Whenever i go out, i feel very self-conscious about my weight. I dont look meaty at all, just a piece of twig. therefore, i wear clothes tha doesnt show any of my body parts. i dont even wear short clothes anymore. the first thing that people think is that i'm skinny with chubby cheeks. and my friends said, " dam steven, you're skinny!" 123 LBS 15 years old. 5'8 |

^ Maybe he's not underweight, but he wants to gain weight.
He says he's a twig. And I used that BMI thing and it said that he is just 0.2 away from being underweight. Maybe this will help: QUOTE Increasing starchy, sugary, and greasy foods is not a good idea. These are bad for your body. Even if you want to gain weight, your calories should come from foods that are good for you. Healthy fats include omega 3 oils like fish oils, flax, and nuts. Good sources of protein include organic meats, fish, and organic poultry. Increase the number of meals per day to 5 or 6 small balanced meals. Protein powders and shakes can be added as meals. Some are flavored and only need added water and some others can blended with water or your choice of juices to improve the taste. It would be a plus to add a small amount of flax seed oil and some psillium powder to add some healthy fiber. http://nutrition.about.com/od/dietsformedi.../GainWeight.htm |
