When someone insults you, look them straight in the eye and say, "Grow up" hten roll your eyes and walk away. Start eating. Pizza and chocolate, the best! lol, you need to talk to your doctor too.

jazz82289 answered Friday October 29 2004, 11:55 pm: You shouldn't want to gain weight. Don't do it to please them. It's not even a what you want to do issue because you have a fast metabolism meaning no matter how much you eat you are going to look the same. I'm just like that. Just stay away from them. This is how you were made, be proud of it! XXX [ jazz82289's advice column | Ask jazz82289 A Question ]
lovelyrita answered Friday October 29 2004, 9:40 pm: It's perfectly normal for your body to be like that at your age. Once you're done growing (approx. 2 years after starting your period), you'll start fleshing out. For now, you can start lifting weights - even if you don't get any bigger, it'll prevent bone density problems later in life :) Don't do any drastic to gain weight until you're post-puberty, though.

S_C answered Friday October 29 2004, 3:26 pm: This might sound weird, but EXCERCISE. It helps you gain weight it a healthy way. Let me break it down
Excercise = muscle tone up
muscle ways more than fat
If you're thin, and you want to gain, and get a good healthy body, get muscles so you will be closer to a healthy weight. It's a wonderful thing to have a fast metabolism. I have to really work on my weight. I'm 14 in about a week, and I weigh 110. But I'm only like 5 foot or 5'1. [ S_C's advice column | Ask S_C A Question ]

To gain more weight, you could go to a vitamin store and get some weight gaining powder and some weight gaining food bars! Hope I helped and good luck :) [ Karen's advice column | Ask Karen A Question ]
Farren answered Friday October 29 2004, 9:02 am: Tons of models were made fun of when they were young for being too skinny. Believe me, the same guys who make fun of you now will change their minds when you get older and more developed. You're still an adolescant, and if you just started getting your period it'll be a little awkward for a while. I know some girls mature faster, like I'm your height and I'm like 130lbs., but I wish I was thinner, everyone's unhappy about their appearance in some way, especially at our age. I wouldn't worry about it hun.

Lachiquitaloca9 answered Friday October 29 2004, 8:12 am: You're only 14 so trust me the weight will eventually come. If you're that desperate you can always go to a health suppliment store (GNC...etc) and get weight gaining powder. Wrestlers and body builders use it...just be cautious...don't overdo it...if you ever saw the movie Mean Girls you know what I mean. :) [ Lachiquitaloca9's advice column | Ask Lachiquitaloca9 A Question ]
