i'm underweight and i know why


Question Posted Wednesday March 15 2006, 10:23 pm

i'm a female and i just turned 14. i'm 5'3" and i weight 80 pounds right now. a bit ago i went on meds for adhd innatentive. since then i dropped 5 pounds so now i am 80. (i was 85). i've always been tiny. my eating habbits were fine before meds, i would eat only slightly smaller portions than my friends would, just because i am smaller. now that i am on meds i am never hungry, there for i dont eat as often or as much. i was warned this would happen if i go on meds. i need meds to function well at school though. i've been told to force myself to eat, but i just can't. i'm satisfied. not hungry, not full but satisfied. its a combination i assume-me forgetting to eat lunch and me not finishing because food just is boring now. i dont like it. i am so self concious of my body because i'm so bony. i dont know what to do. i want to be like at least 95 pounds. i'm tired of being picked on.

i have the same problem although im not that tiny (shorter but not smaller) but anyways i would say eat highcalorie things.. like instead of eating peanut butter and jelly eat like a hamburger.. youll gain weight faster. also eat smaller portions like double your meals like have 6 small meals instead of 3 and snack as much as you can.. youll be able to get more down that way. and with your lunch start with the most fattening part first like fries and try to finish that first and if you can drink something like coolaid for lunch. for your height you should be atleast 100 pounds so you have alot to work at (my sister is 5'3 and the skinniest person i know and shes 108 pounds)


and snack as often as you can like while you watch tv
