Am I too skinny?

[Anonymous]

So my friend was saying I need to gain weight. I completely disagree with him though. I would like to lose weight. So I'm a girl obviously, I'm 5'6 and a half, and weigh about 110 pounds. My waist is 24 so I wear a 0 or 1 size pants.

Okay so my friend is telling me to add this. He say he thinks I'm too skinny cause he can count my ribs and my hips stick out really far. And my neck and shoulder bone thingy stick out really far. And... well I'm just bony!

Look if that is how you naturally are, then no you're not too skinny. I hate when other people feel like they can make comments on other people's bodies. Your friend has his opinion but are you 100% attracted to him? He might not be an Adonis himself. You are skinny but "too skinny" is relative. Look at it this way, you'll never have to worry about being fat and if you do ever gain weight with age you'll have room to grow and not be like 1 hamburger away! Plus a lot of girls are dieting to try for your body type so be proud

you're a bit thin, but that doesn't necessarily mean unhealthy. your body might still be growing -- a lot of people have that teenage skinniness until filling out their early 20s.

additionally, you might simply be thin. if so, that's okay. what's more important is if you're healthy. if you're eating well and exercising regularly, that's as important as anything else.

I'm usually attracted to skinny girls. It sounds to me like you are sexy.

I'm 6 feet tall and weight 160.

you're actually a bit underweight. don't try and lose weight, if nothing else just try to maintain where you're at

You're friend is right. Your BMI is a bit too low. You should try to gain 5 or so pounds.
