5'3" and 90lbs at 17 y/o, Please Help!! What can I do?
Okay. So I am 17 years old (18 in 2 months), and I am 5'3" tall. I weigh only 90 lbs. I am female by the way. Lately I've been able to stay around 88-90lbs, but I usually bounce around between 85-90lbs. I am not anorexic, I know I am too thin, I need to gain weight!! But I don't know what to do!!
I ride horses about twice a week, and I try to eat healthy. Though I do find myself not eating on some days. Not because I don't want to but because sometimes I'm just not hungry or we really have no food.
What can I do to gain weight?? I'd like to at least be at 105lbs, is that a good weight? I'd like to get to that weigh by my birthday which is August 7, does that sound reasonable??
What things can I eat to help me gain weight? Protein right? Peanut butter?
Any kind suggestions welcome
Thank you

To gain weight you need to combine starchy carbohydrates with protein as indicated below.
Good weight gaining combinations are bread, cereals, pasta, rice, corn, potatoes or sweet potatoes combined with meat, poultry, eggs, cheese, nuts or sea food.
Peanut butter sandwiches and cheese sandwiches are both good weight gaining combinations.
The protein in the above combinations will help to gain extra muscles.

Drink a alot of whole milk and eat alot of peanut butter and white rice this foods are cheap and high in calories. Also sounds like you have a high metabolism so try being as lazy as you can be. The less you move around the less calories yiu burn.
