is it true that when your period comes you gain alot of weight if u have eaten tons of junk food in the past? b/c my best friend is so skinny but for lunch she eats this (not joking..) 2 bags of nabisco cookies, 2 of the school's cookies, 2 mini-cartons of chocolate milk, a bag of pretzels, a bag of doritos, and sometimes some grapes..thats it! She is so unhealthY! and for snack she goes home and eats like 4 bags of cheez-its! And she does pretty much no excercise at all except yoga once a week w/ me! I dont understand how she stays so skinny b/c i know she doesn't have belimia or anorexia..but anyways, do u gain weight weight u start ur period? cuz she hasn't started hers yet

Reply from Kelsi, Age 12 - 03/14/04 - IP#: 66.166.251.xxx My friend is like that. She can eat whaever she wants, but doesnt gain anything. She will have cheez-itz and some ice-cream and cream cheese at one sitting for a snack!---My friend isnt belemic, or whatever its called, it is just (I think) that she has been eating that sort of stuff for a while... and she finally doesnt gain anything from it. Just because some people are skinny doesnt mean they are haelthy. Its better to lose weight slowly and healthy then fast and unhealthy. Hope this helps!
