People probably tell you that you're lucky all the time! Well, I am one of them, Being thin is a good thing. You probablyhave an amazing metabolism. Don't eat junk though, it won't make you fat, it'll just ake you unhealthy. Try building muscle. Muscle burns fat, but it also adds weight and can make you go from feeling scrawny to feeling powerful... Good Luck!

hey! well i want to help you but i don't think any advice you can get on this site would be the best advice for your situation. i've heard of a condition in some women (i'm not sure if i should even call it a condition... it's not a disease or anything) which causes them to LOSE weight after pregnancy, instead of gain it like most people. it probably just means you have a very high metabolism, especially if you do eat "like a pig" and still don't gain weight. i deffinitely recommend going to the doctor and explaining this to them. or, seeing a dietician is probably a good idea as well, because they can point you in the right direction and tell you what foods to eat in order to gain weight in a HEALTHY way!! :) i hope that was somewhat helpful!!
