Hello, folks.

I ask once more for advice from you. Ah well, here's the current problem.

I am underweight, and getting worse. At 5'1 and my age, I am supposed to weigh 110 pounds, but I weigh 93 pounds.

Now that I am wanting to start doing exercise, I need to gain some weight, to have more energy.

The thing is, I never tried to loose weight. I didn't think I was fat before or anything. I just ate like I normally do (and I eat very little normally, I just don't feel hunger much), and I lost weight, a ton of it.

There's concern because I am sick a lot more often now. I usually feel faint, dizzy, and doing a simple activity like standing up causes my heart to want to beat off my chest.

But, now I am beggining to think that I do indeed look fat, when in truth everyone is shocked at my being so damn thin. The idea of looking fatter repulses me, but I know I have to do it, for the sake of my health. When I am forced to eat (usually by my boyfriend, who is the one who told me I was underweight in the first place and needed to check myself), I get nauseated after eating about half of my food, and I feel like I am going to throw up anything more that I eat. But I am not so weight-obsessed that I feel like I may have an eating disorder.

So, I'm asking if anyone knows how to gain weight in a healthy way, how to stop myself from feeling nauseated everytime I eat more than I normally do, or if you've been in a similar situation, I'd love to hear your story. Thanks.

you don't want to gain that type of weight spork, you want to gain lean muscle mass and then maintain that mass, you want to be musculer (not in the buff sense) not flabby in the no muscle what so ever but look healthy

You can't gain weight unless you eat enough to override your metabolism. My guess is that you have a very fast metabolism and that is what started your "disorder". Just get over it and eat all you can. Fruits and veggies.

I was fat, very fat. I now way 170 people would think I got fatter but with diet change and working out this weight is all muscle

Celtic for you I reccomend running, push-ups situps and light free weights (curls and the like) foodwise lot's of protein but only the lean stuff like skinless chicken breasts or lean meats, I also reccomend a bunch of veggies to go with that and at the very least a good multivitamin and a calcium supplement (vital for women and good for guys to) on exercise take your time and work at your own pace and find someone to work out with...like your boyfriend for example

and that's amp's tips on healthy weight gain
