Question

I weigh 108 poundish and im 5'6 and 16 yrs old. Im obbsessed with my weight and i think i've started to notice i mite be gaining weight but i dont no cuz my mom wont allow me to have a scale.

Answer 3

ur freakin slim girl...if u gain weight im pretty sure it will be in areas that happen when u grow up, u know hips and b*****s and the thighs and bum (as u need that area to store that fat there to have healthy children later in life) and not as if u were getting fat...and vitamins do not make u gain weight lol...its calories unused that do...i think u have an issue with ur body image is what it is...because once u reach adulthood ur  underweight if u stay at 108 at that height and ur doc will advise u to gain a few esp if u have minor problems with menstration and bone growth and what not...id concider seeing a therapist.

Answer 6

You don't need to lose weight, I think you might be underweight for your height.

Answer 7

......wut do you think YOU WILL LOSE WAIT

Answer 8

If the vitamins are making you gain weight, it's probably a GOOD thing.  Vitamins make up for what you aren't getting from food.  From what you've mentioned, it looks like your eating only a thousand calories a day which, for your height, probably isn't enough to get in all the nutrients.  I wouldn't recommend anyone under 20 dieting unless they have a terrible problem with overeating.  You are not grown and you don't want to confuse your body.  Eating well keeps your metabolism going so don't bother with losing weight until your body is developed more fully.  To maintain your weight, do what you've been doing.  You have a very low weight so you can probably expect that you might gain weight as your body develops, but still don't deprive your body of what it needs.  

Answer 9

first off if your only 16 lets face some facts your still growing your going to grow until about 18 for most pepoloe that is. flinstones or any other will not make you gain weight in anyway as far as calories gor you seem to be doing well, its the fat calories you need to watch out for if you read on the label it normaly say calories and then calories from fat and that you dont want alot of.  now the body need fat it needs it to burn it gets more from it then most pepole think and its not what you eat but how much of it your eating .

Answer 10

Please don't diet! 108 is small enough, we don't need anymore Nicole Richie's out there!!

Answer 11

"DIETING" is for idiots.  It's too bad that you are made to feel obsessed with your weight so early in your life.  I'll be you are just gorgeous but you only see problems.  Your body is going to gain weight just by virtue of maturing and nothing to do with what you eat. Instead of weight, I would seriously suggest you consider FITNESS as your yardstick.  If you are fit you are healthy.  Tell me, how healthy to you think a WWII concentration camp inmate was from being worked to death and denied proper nutrition.  Sure enough they were skinny but fit?  Not a chance.  Give yourself a break and start learning to like yourself for who you are rather than for who your not. Also, throw those G.D. beauty magazines away.  They are c**p and lies.

Answer 12

Be thinner!

Answer 13

It will break into little peices and bums with rape you and eat you till your gone.

Answer 14

ur weight is 108 pound that is relly light and ur 16 and most 12 to 14 teen weight abot 107 to 110 u should eat a little bit more at least 2,000  calories if you don't not gonna get enough brain power

Answer 15

You will get skinny.  You're already skinny.  Why make yourself skinnier?  That would make you look anorexic.  That would be gross.  I don't think you should go on a diet.  That would be so sick!  Sorry!  

Answer 16

1. You don't get enough minimum calories a day, so if you get lots of exercise in a day you'll lose weight, but don't get any exercise and you'll gradually gain weight (a minuscule amount per day though).

2. Your body won't go "into starvation" but your keep it up long enough and your body will think it's normal to eat so little and thus leading to acute anorexia nervosa.

3. Do not use up all your daily calories in exercise. Believe it or not your body uses calories even will sitting, typing, and walking around the house.

4. Vitamins will not make you gain weight. The only thing that could is that Flinstones vitamins contain sugars to make them sweet and to appeal to children. You should be fore warned that some vitamins may affect your metabolism depending on what's in them. The best way to avoid is to speak with your doctor or a dietician.

Answer 17

You sound like you're heading for trouble.  Live a normal life with normal nutrients while you're growing up and you won't end up a  brain-twisted adult who can't sleep without sedatives and can't shut up and listen while awake.

Answer 18

OMFG.

ugh seriously, girls like you need to get over theirselves.

you are at a perfect weight, maybe a little less than how much you should weigh.

if you go on a diet you will practically ruin your body.

your ammune system will be pathetic and you will have bad bone structure.

YOUR SKINNY GET OVER THE "IM FAT" THING.

i've met pigs with more self-esteem than you.

Answer 19

simple

if your clothes feel loose, you are losing.

If your clothes feel tight,  guess what?

Answer 20

You are already underweight for your heigth.....Your body will only let you lose so much weight before it becomes unhealthy and you get sick....HUGS!! If you want to lose inches....exercise...

They think you can control your self and think you need help. some even come up to you. my friends kidna went through that
