    Hi, You remind me of myself as a teenager.

    I ate masses but at 17 I was 6' 3" & weighed 133 pounds.

    I was taken into hospital and fed calorific food like sponge puddings. Eventually, I became obese and I have a heart condition.

    If you are fit and well just enjoy your life and stop worrying. I would love to be "too thin" again. JT

    As long as you have a healthy Body Mass Index, you'll be fine. 😃

    I had the same problem, now i find it easy to put on weight. What your going through is because of a high metabolism. This dies down as we get older. Control your eating now because its harder to lose weight as we get older.
