Hungry but full

by Someguy24, Aug 14, 2005 12:00AM
I dont know why this happens, and I wish I had soem sort of answer, or idea other than, "You're mom is skinny so its okay if you are" but I am way under weight, im an 18 year old male, and I fluctuate between the weight of 110 and 112 ever since about 9th grade. No one I know weighs that less, i'm terribly skinny, but I dont look unhealthy, and I still have lots of energy, and I still do sports, and im active but I still weigh that less. I talk to other guy friends, and they're talking about weights and they are all amazed at my weight, its uncomfortable, im not terribly weak, I carry around a huge bass drum around a field for hours a day, so I'm guessings its not too bad. But I need to know why im not gaining weight. or Why, sometimes when im hungry and then I end up eating a little, i dotn feel like eating much anymore. That rarely happens but it still does. Any help would be appreciated.

We are all born with a certain body type. The important thing is that you eat healthy food. It sounds like you are getting exercise and you are strong. We are also born with the ability to know when we are full. You are lucky that you listen to your body and stop eating when you feel full. Most people don't and that's why they are overweight. There are protein shakes on the market which will give you some extra calories. Stay away from sugary foods and soft drinks, make sure your nutrients are good ones, not wasted ones.

Hey guy, There are several things you can do to put on weight. I would pick up a protein shake like Astros18 stated; they taste horrible but are really good for you. Try eating things high in carbs, bananas work well.. If those don't work, try using the help of the magical herb Marijuana. It can be safely ingested by turning it into butter, or you can vaporize it. It will give you the appetite of a 500 pound man. Plus, you will have plenty of fun experiences. So try to get a medical marijuana card, It will help you plenty.
