I have 2 kids and I'm 5"tall and weight no more than 85 lbs.. I love food and I eat a lot.I'm not trying to lose weight cause I don't like to look skinny.. I can never gain weight and when I do I lose them after a while.. I've gain a lot of weight when I was pregnant but I lost it after I had the baby... I don't know what to do,I've tired to gain weight but eating just doesn't seem to work.. what can I do? Should I see a doctor? HELP! :(

Have you tried any of the health shakes, some of which are used to help people gain weight?

You do not mention your age. I was like this until I had my fourth child and hit the tender age of 40.

You can try eating foods high in calories, but not fatty greasy foods as you do not want to clog your arteries.

Have you been to the doctor to have your thyroid checked? You may have hyperthyroidism, in which case the doc can give you a med to help regulate your metabolism.
