Is being 5'3 and 110 pounds too skinny? It's really hard for me to gain weight.?


Question:
? Just wondering.

Answers:
I'm 5'3" and 110 and i look skinny but not anorexic. People usually say it's because I have a fast metabolism and that's probably the same for you. I eat A LOT, especially compared to some of my friends and yet they gain easier than i do just because they have slower metabolisms. I also do ballet, so if you're really active that's probably a factor in your weight. You're perfectly healthy if you're eating right, and the reason you're thin is because you have a fast metabolism and are in shape.

Other Answers:
sounds like you're at a healthy wait for your height

just right.. I hope not because I'm 5'2 and about 90lbs. I eat non-stop (junk food junky), but can't gain any weight. Doctors say it's just because of my high metabolism and that I shouldn't worry. So I wouldn't worry too much, you just may be one of the lucky ones that won't have any weight issues.


It's fine as long as you don't lose any more weight. If you do find yourself losing more weight, please see your doctor. You probably just have a fast metabolism though so please try not to worry. You can also gain weight by building up muscle with weight training. HTH.


I think your Thyroid gland is working overtime and you have a faster metabolism. just like me
