Hi, I am 17 and since about 6 or so months I lost weight dramatically. I went from a 99- 100, to a 97, then to a 95, and now to 93lbs. I can't hold any weight and go further than 93lbs. Everything has shrinked; my arms, legs, waist, and well, the once regular breasts & butt I had are all but nonexistent now. I have no idea of what I have, and I eat three meals a day, coupled with snacks. My appetite has decreased but I get hungry as usual, however, when eating, it is hard to eat as I would want.
I need help gaining weight. Im 20 pounds underweight, and I've already started trying the things listed, but they aren't working out like I expected......
Im 15 and im only 98 pounds. And apparently the average weight for me would be 120 to 140... I've been trying everything to gain weight, but it isn't working
I'm 24 years old, and I've always had a problem with weight gaining. I weigh 102 pounds. would really love to gain some weight. can you ell me any good ideas to do so.
i am 12 years young and im 4'11 i weigh 81 pounds and im really skinny, people in school make fun of my because im skinny i would like to gain weight before summer, can you tell some ideas to gain weight?
i am 12 years old and i am slim. i wanted to gain weight so long but its not happening. i want to gain weight in 1 week so can u please tell mi what to do ASAP !!
Hi , I'm fourteen years old and apparently really thin . I'm looking forwards to gaining weight for this year but I don't know how to , I need help in ways it can help . Thanks .
this is so unfair, I might succeed gaining weight but I will have a mouth full of rotten teeth to say the list surely there are other ways to gaining weight that wont compromise my health I mean seriously number 30 is such a joke
Hey I am 12 years old and will be 13 in less than a month. I was a gymnast but had to quit due to how under weight I am. I was 29kl then gained it up to 33.3kl. But lately I have been sick and am now 31kl. It takes me a while to gain weight. Pleas help!
It makes sense why I'm not gaining weight. I can't eat/drink dairy and I can't eat wheat... Well... I shouldn't eat wheat but I do and same with cheese. I love cheese

Hi Celia Ann.
Some things you can do are:
- Eat more. The food/drinks don't have to be junk. Fruits, veggies, legumes, nuts, lean meat, poultry, seafood, and dairy products will still help you gain weight if you just eat more calories than what you burn in a day. Nutrient-dense food are definitely better than high-calorie junk.
- Eat often. Breaking up your meals into mini-meals and eating them throughout the day is a good way to get your calories. Make sure your meals contain protein, starch, vegetable(s), and healthy fat.
- Start weight training. Putting on muscle mass will help add pounds. You should eat high protein snacks before and especially after your workout. The protein will provide the building blocks for your muscles to recover and develop.
I hope this answers your question. :)

Hey there Anette. In my unprofessional opinion, your best bet would be weight training. You gain weight without getting a soft body.
Anette

Hello Serina. Welcome to All Women Stalk!
Just because you want to gain weight doesn't mean that you should eat and drink junk. Maybe instead of soda you could drink high calorie, but healthy, smoothies. They add to your daily caloric intake without being loaded with harmful ingredients. Try to stick to lean meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables. Nuts and fruits are great snacks. To get the best results, consult a doctor or a nutritionist about your calorie requirements. If you eat the right amount of calories per day then you would probably gain weight. Don't give up and just keep working on getting to your goal. You also shouldn't forget to learn to love yourself. Try to tune out the insults. You are on the power lifting team, and you wouldn't be able to do that if you were weak. You should be proud of yourself!
Diksha
eat lots of bananas b4 u workout.....n oatmeal vt milk too
Serina
I do about 18/20 of these things. i am on the school powerlifting team, i eat ALL the time. drink soda. eat really late at night, etc. BUT i am still 105 pounds! i would like to be atleast 115 or 120 im sick of people calling me a skeleton, toothpick or twig. i look gross.
Denise
Hello Stacey. It's great to hear from you!
You shouldn't eat crap just because you are trying to gain weight. Stick to healthy food but increase your daily caloric intake. Weight training or weight lifting can also help you gain muscle mass. And no, you won't become super muscular (since you are not taking steroids or anything like that). I recommend visiting a gym and consulting a professional instructor.
Stacey
hey im so skinny and want to at least be a size 10 instead of a 4 ive been to the doctors sevral times he just says eat more.. if i eat anymore crap my body wont take it.. help..?

Heather
Hey Hai! Some women do want to put on the pounds for such things as muscle building or really any reason. I do agree though -- sodas are pretty unhealthy, there are some better ways to put on weight. :)
Hai
Sodas can really suppress your immune system due to all the sugars. This is really unhealthy. I won't recommend it for anyone to gain weight like this. I've heard women wanting to lose weight with a <a href="the-everyotherdaydiet.com" rel="nofollow">diet</a>, but not gaining weight..
Anshita
This is not the healthy way to gain weight.

Hello sweetie. Welcome to All Women Stalk!
I hope you talked to your doctor about your weight. You need her guidance since you are pregnant. You wouldn't want to harm your baby or yourself.

I i use half n half in my cereal and sneak heavy cream in my mac n cheese totally understand every one, I am 5 foot 3 and 99lbs and I work hard just to weigh what I weigh, I don't have much of an appetite and I smoke very night to sleep and help boost my appetite I used to weigh more so I worry something is wrong., six months ago I was 130lbs when i got out of jail but that was cuz I ate all day and slept with no excersize I am 22 btw good luck everyone I think I am going to try a weight gain I supplement like whey protein I will post if I see results

Bad advice for some. I've experienced just the opposite. I've stopped smoking altogether (A week ago) because medical cannabis has caused me to go from 185lbs to 130lbs in just 4 months. Daily use though, which was my problem. I've lost my appetite altogether even for my favorite foods, never even got the ''munchies''. Great way to get down to a heathier weight though if I can ever stop losing.

i guess we should get started., :)) thanks for this tips., I'll get back on this if i really gained weight., Good Luck!!

Hi Maddie. Do you know why you suddenly lost weight? Unexplained weight loss should be checked out by a doctor.

Hi Valerie,
I'm sooo sorry to hear about all the name calling. Kids can be really cruel! All I can say is that you are young and still growing and your body will continue to change. Eat right, go out and play a sport and have fun with life sweetie. You can't let others bog you down!
*hug*

Also its important to gain weight healthy or can lead to other complications. I use to think smoking fastfood and being lazy would help me gain weight, but it didn't! So do it in a healthy way. Hope I helped in some way!(:

Smoking can always have a different effect on gaining weight. It only made me lose weight.I eat all the time and it made me eat more. It acted as if it was making my motabolosm higher.

Well, to be honest, I don't have any experience in trying to gain weight. That's why my answers are general or vague, and that's why I often link to other articles with tips that might helpful. I mostly just want people to know that their questions are being read.
Thank you for your feedback!

Ya'll think you got it bad? I am 19 going on 20 summer of 2012. I am 5'7 and weight 98lbs and have tried everything I can think of to gain weight. I feel so unattractive because I am so thin, I get sad because when I go into stores at the mall many of the stores clothes do not go small enough to fit my frame.
Danielle
wanted to thanks everyone for posting these, its nice to hear that other women are suffering from what I am and fel the same as me. I really appreciate everyones openess, because as women its affects how we feel in every aspect of life. I am encouraged and more educated now. I have been battling my weight loss/depression/epilepsy for a while. My seizure meds make me somewhat emotionally stresses and those meds make me feel sick so I am trying to push forward. I hate sitting in a chair or in the bathtub and feeling my boney butt uhhhh....I want my healthy weight back. Its more about how you feel and how your health is then how you look. Dont let anyone tell you otherwise. Keep pushing everyone. Your not alone!

Try to see if your doctor prescribes megace. It will make you eat like crazy I was 85lbs and went up to 115lbs. But make sure if you stop it that you're able to maintain the weight. This medicine will make you eat so much you will gain for sure ! Best of luck
