In need of help
Okay, here goes. I have just turned 17. Like many teenage girls I am insecure with my weight. But unlike a lot of other girls I don't want to lose weight, but gain it. I've always been very thin but never really worried about it since my family always said I'd "fill out when I'm older". But I haven't and no matter how much food I force down myself I can't put on the weight. I don't really work out and don't eat too healthily in fear of losing any more weight because I'm now sick of people commenting on how thin I am. Clothes don't fit easy, I look unhealthy and my confidence is deteriorating because of it which is not good for my age since I'm looking for a job and am still in education. I've thought of a few things I could do such as getting weight and muscle gain tablets. But their a bit pricey and I'd prob have to tell my parents which I don't want to because my friends and family think I'm strong and it doesn't bother me so I'd feel a bit embarrassed. Also if I was to purchase special foods which help gain weight I'd have to tell them. Perhaps I should consult my GP about it? but I dont know if they deal with this kind of thing...Please help and advice is strongly appreciated.
