I have a friend who is bullimic and she is really skinny anyway. She is a good athlete and doesn't need to be doing this to her body. Is there any way I can stop her?

How come everybody here seems to think the only reason you can be overweight is overeating? There can be other reasons too. I have been skinny and active all my life till i got a kidney disease not to long ago. that gave me fluid retentiton. an dthen i had to take a very high dose of prednisone for a two months. I'm still on it. I started gaining weight on it. and the last time I went to the doctor their height/weight chart said i was about 30 pounds overweight already in this short peroid of time. The doctor said my "moonface" will eventually slim down after i'm off the steroid. i know that fluid retention will go away easy but fat is harder to get rid of. and i have to admit prednisone makes me hungry all the time. and if i try to skip meals or snacks i get horrible cramps. my dovtor said that was normal for the dose i'm taking. is their anything i can do to prevent myself from overeating? so when i'm off this can go to my normal weight. I take dance lesons reguraly.

I really need an answer here, all my friends and family think im really thin, but I always feel like i have alot of "blubber" and alot of adult size pants don't fit me, but they fit my older sister. Do u think I should try this program? Or will it be unhealthy for me, as im in puberty?

Talk to your doctor and see what he/she has to say.

Consult with your doctor and he or she can recommend you different things to do. Your doctor can write you out an eating plan and an exercise plan. But remember you can do it if you keep trying! Good luck!

Yo girl...You are way underweight and I think you need some help from your doctor. Your almost 6' and are barely 100 lbs.

I have a problem. The last time I went to my doctor I was pretty skinny. Now i gained about 10-15lbs. My stomach even has rolls on it! I'm worried about what he will say.

I know how you feel. I went to the doctor once weighing 132 pounds. About four months later I got sick, but I tried to keep from going to the doctor because I had gained about 18 pounds. I've always been overweight, so he didn't say much, just that I need to start exercising more. Don't be afraid to go see your doctor. Maybe he can help you take off that extra weight.
