Are you healthy besides your inability to gain weight?
My family bane! Thank God for padded bras!on the bright side- I have tits, which nobody on my mom's side can claim!
The delayed menses are a pretty good sign that you are below what is a healthy weight for you. It really wouldn't be a bad idea to get it looked into.I am 5'7. I can maintain 117-120lbs (through sheer volume of input) for a few weeks, but then for no reason, and with no pattern, I crash and lose weight and am lucky if i can hold 112lbs. Repeat.
I get tired more easily than I think someone of my age (21) and life demands (minimal) should. I treat my body well and get lots of sleep but I don't know why I keep crashing weight. My menstrual cycle has (finally) settled in to a relatively-predictable (I know the week that it's coming but not the few days) pattern (it was 60-70 days in between two years ago, and before that it used to be clockwork 28 days).
I should probably go see my doctor again. I always feel like I'm bugging him b/c all my tests show up clear, but I still think there's something not right with me. I don't think I'm naturally meant to be scrawny. Athletic-skinny, yes. Scrawny? No.

Ugh! Yes it would be. The 32As I wore for years were findable, but usually in the girls department.at least they make your size! a 32 C is damn near impossible to find around here!
Yeah, I'm not sure about the mother thing, my dad was the skinny one, too. Though he's fairly broad-shouldered and tall, and he's filled out more now, when he was in his 20s he was skinny as! My mother is of normal weight, also tall-ish.
I'm about 5'7" (shorter than both of them), and weigh just under 110 lbs. I've always been this way, and no matter what junk I eat, or how much I consume, I don't gain any weight. (Although normally I simply don't have room for very large portions in the first place.)
My sister (18) is Mom's build. Maybe an inch shorter than me, she's a few sizes bigger, but well within the range of normal.
And my brother (14), is a beanpole. He's in that sprouty stage, but he's as broad-shouldered and will probably be as tall and as skinny as Dad is.
So, I dunno.
Oh, yes. :cough: 32B :cough:Ugh! Yes it would be. The 32As I wore for years were findable, but usually in the girls department.
Oh, yes. :cough: 32B :cough:
I feel so...plump. 5'4", 115-120 pounds.
Oh, yes.Sitting on a hard stuff does hurt like hell.
