Ht. 5'1", Wt. 120 - For most of my childhood i have been active and mostly fit. then, my doctor told me i was out of proportion and should try to maintain my weight until i grew 3 more inches. I didn't think that it would be a problem, but it was. i tried my hardest to stay at that weight, but i ended up gaining 15 pounds and not growing at all! i dont understand. i eat healthy, i exersize regularly, i am involved in sports. why am i gaining all this weight? i understand peuberty is part of the cause, but i dont think it would cause me to gain almost 20 pounds in only 8 months. i really think i need serious help.
