    depends i guess why your skiiny,

    myself im 5ft 10, the most i ever weighed was 9 and a half stone, the half stone i think was due to regular alchohol drinking at that time , when i stopped drinking i dropped to 9 stone, untill getting cancer and cheemo therepy now im just under 8 stone, im under a dietition and i use fortisip drinks on prescripion these are to help gain weight, fotified milk is also supposed to help, id be real happy to be 9 stone again,

    iv heard guiness is good too

    ps always eat breakfast then your not burning up your stored calories

    Exactly, and so far we're none the wiser with no response from the original poster.
    Your post deserves a reply, and sympathy, which may help other members.
    * There's a genetic element to steady weight, normally not a cause for worry especially if it's within the desirable range.
    * Unintentional weight loss / inability to gain weight if already too thin, should always be taken seriously. There's a long list of possible causes. Poor nutrition ( even in hospital ) or eating disorders may be responsible. Smoking, use of legal / illegal drugs, or psychological factors ( stress, bereavement, depression ) can be involved. There are several reasons for " hidden " cancer to cause weight loss, as well as overactive thyroid, diabetes or infection.
    * Unintentional weight gain / inability to lose weight ( one in four adults are now overweight ) is most often related to diet / inactivity .... but not always ! It's the " mirror image " of weight loss - poor nutrition, eating disorders, quitting smoking, use of drugs, and psychological factors may have a role. " Hidden " cancer, underactive thyroid and other illness can also cause weight gain.
    * If your weight is changing, you don't feel well, and it worries you, see your doctor .

    ... it's common courtesy to at least acknowledge replies; MOST posters probaby do ... but, sadly, ... there are still a fair few who don't !!!
