go see a doctor you might have a tapeworm or other parasite that uses energy from your body. if you eat a lot and dont gin weight then that could be the reason why, get a check up and also we dont allow personal emails to be posted.

It could also be a really high metabolism or thyroid problem, either way it does need to be checked out by a doctor if you are concerned about it.

Lower your metabolism by eating the same time each day, every day, eating the same amount. your metabolism will sort of get bored with it, and lower. If you always eat at different times, and have a lot of cals one day, and not as many the next day, your metabolism will get higher.

Hi, you probably have a fast metabolism, but it would be better if you could see a doctor to rule out any other problems. Also if you want to regulate your metabolism, you need to eat healthy (no junk food and cutting out sugar) as well as excercise regularly.

Also I see that you are still only 14 and if you haven't had your period yet, this could be quite normal. Many young girls seem underweight untill they get their periods where as their weight regulates.

How to GAIN weight?

First, determine from the information below, what your weight should be. Then set yourself goals of a week, 2 weeks, a month, 3 months, 6 months and a year. As you see yourself meeting your goals it becomes easier.

BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measurement of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both men and women between the ages of 18 and 65 years.

BMI Classification

18.5 or less Underweight
18.5 to 24.99 Normal Weight
25 to 29.99 Overweight
30 to 34.99 Obesity (Class 1)
35 to 39.99 Obesity (Class 2)
40 or greater Morbid Obesity

Check out your BMI at the bmi calculator site below to see where you stand.

bmi calculator:

If you need conversion info, 1 kg = 2.2 pounds and 2.54 cm = 1 inch (12 inches = 1 foot)
