    I'm under weight what should I do?
    Hi my name is jasmen and
    I'm about 5'4 and I think I am under weight I have no body figure and I don't like that. I have tried eating to gain weight but it doesn't seem to be working it just looks like I'm gaining weight around my stomic area.:(. What should I do?

    You most likely have a high metabolism. Be thankful because once your metabolism slows down and you put the weight on you wish you were skinny again.
    How old are you and what do you weigh?

    I was 5' 2" and 80 lbs at 16.
    109 is pretty much perfect weight for your age and height.

    Here are some charts

    Ok then thanks I feel better now. People were making me think that I was underweight because there's other people that are my age and that are bigger then me.
