Weight Training is your answer!  Don't worry about bulking up, women don't have the hormones necessary to grow very large or bulky muscles (naturally) even with years of weight training.  This is especially true for those with ectomorphic (skinny) body types.  Squats and lunges are the exercises you're looking for to increase the thickness of your butt and thighs.  \n\nHere's a complete list of exercises for the legs:\nhttp://www.preventdisease.com/fitness/Strength_Exercises_legs.html\n\nIf you are beginner, always seek the assistance of a certified personal trainer before attempting any weight training exercises.

Wish I had your metabolism LOL.  I just look at food and gain weight.  Ok well best suggestion is to go to a health food store and talk to someone there they should be able to recommend something or like a vitamin health store is what I meant to say.

None. Protein shakes are 100% unnatural and unhealthy. Why is it that you need to gain 5-10 pounds..and at 16? Your weight fluctuates about 5 pounds throughout the day, so I wouldn't try to load your body with chemicals and such to simply gain a couple pounds.

Try a weight gainer...there are several ways to consume it, for example with drinks or shakes.  We also have weight gainer ice cream.  Take a look at the source below for ideas.  \n\nGood luck!

If as you say you cannot stuff any more food in and cannot gain weight, you should talk to a doctor.  She or he might be able to do more for you than changing your diet will.  Have you calculated your body mass index (BMI)?  There are many websites where you can do this, I recommend the CDC website: http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/bmi/index.htm (use the teen calculator).  This will let you know where you stand with your peers.  The best way to gain weight is to increase calorie intake.  If you are eating as much as you can, maybe you should change the types of food you are eating, i.e. no junk food, stay away from saturated fats, UNsaturated fat is good, as well as proteins which will help strengthen muscles (muscle weighs more than fat).  Whole milk, although not too low in saturated fat is a good source of calories from fats and proteins, and is sometimes recommended by nutritionists to help undernourished people gain weight.  Also peanut butter is good, it has a good balance of calories from fats, carbs and proteins.  Good luck, but most importantly you should talk to a doctor or nutritionist before making any drastic changes.

You want to weigh 101 lbs?!!!  I know you don't want to hear this but that's much too thin for your height.  I am 5'2" and weigh 112 pounds.  To tell you the truth, I look like a walking skeleton and am trying to GAIN weight.  Please, please don't start trying to loose weight when it's not necessary!  I know, that's what everyone has been telling you but it's true.  Research shows that the earlier you start going on diets the less successful you'll be in the years to come (at 13 that's not something you are worried about -- after all you have all the time in the world  but believe me those years will pass before you know it).  Do yourself a favor and just eat healthy (fruits, veggies, no saturated fats, etc.) and walk 3-4 times a week for about an hour.  You'll be healthier and happier with yourself than if you loose the weight you want.

i wish that people would stop and think about everything that they are losing out on just because they think they are fat. i have been fat my whole life. i used to dread meeting new people because i was afraid of what they were thinking of me, now i could care less. there are way way bigger people in this world out there then 150 pounds. if you came up to me in person and said that you think you are fat i would laugh in your face. ill tell you what, you want me to send you a picture of some of my family members? i have an aunt that is close to 400 pound. and a cousin that is 330. and i aint no skinny minny myself. what you have to do is except yourself for what and who you are. if you dont like it then you should cut back on calories or lose it the right way because the ways that you are trying will work and then you will gain all of the weight back. and my mother used to be bulimic--she had dentures by age 24.

I used to be very thin.  I got no girls and the guys all thought I was weak even though I was actually pretty healthy and strong. \n\nAnyway, I stopped smoking cigarettes, and I started going to the gym.  I went kind of crazy but I recommend you go pretty heavy but slow and reasonable.  \n\nGet yourself a basic book on bodybuilding.  Basic!  \n\nDon't worry about supplements but here is the secret which made me gain 5o pounds in 5 months.  Eat like you are crazy.  \n\nI don't mean big amounts at one time but if you consume 800 quality calories every hour(set an alarm).\n\nI ate normal foods.  But absolutley not chocolate or candy.  This stuff will burn off too quickly.\n\nI ate alot of chicken sandwiches with cheese and monster cheese burgers. Fried chicken, potato salad.  Vegetables are important but eat those last after you ate some heavy stuff.  \n\nAnd finally, don't go overboard.  Thin people look really cool in their clothes.  And later in life you will be happy to be thin and probably increase you life span by staying thin.  \n\nBut, right now you want chics and that is understandable.  Put on about 15 kilos and be done with it.  You won't lose it again after you gain it.\n\nI am glad I put on wieght, but right now I have a nice middle sized body and I am not sef conscious at all.  \n\nAlso, get somoe cool clothes.  You don't have to spend a lot of money but try to fashion it up a bit.  \n\nAnd also, getting girls is a numbers game.  You said you don't "attract" the girls.  How do you know?  Anyway, it doesn't normally work like that.  You have to be proactive and learn that if you get rejected, that is just one more rejection closer to the one(or two) that are going to say OK.\n\nAlso, you are pretty young.  Girls your age are somtimes pretty shallow.  They care about cars, money, popularity, etc.  The wonderful thing about those kind is that they are very easy to manipulate once you finally turn the tables. \n\nAnd you won't feel guilty about manipulating them.  They are bitches right?\n\nBut don't treat the nice ones bad.  Treat them nice and appreciate them.  But, always kind of keep in mind that you could get burned by a chic that you really like.  If you are prepared for it and realize that there is always another one then this won't hurt you.\n\nWomen sometimes call us pigs but sometimes they create the loathsome woman-haters by showing themselves to be unworthy of a man's sincerety.  It works the other way too.\n\nGirls your age would prefer to get the shalloe glory from telling their friends who they rejected, than to just actually have a boyfriend and be getting shagged.  \n\nBut later, after about age 25, if you haven't already turned the tables then the table will turn automatically.\n\nThey will be getting fat and old and leeching for a man to marry.  While a man usually just gets more distinguished looking with age.  And you, you will be your tall svelt self, and buddy, you will be dangerous.

Everybody is suggesting you eat junk food to put on fat.  I say that most of the people making suggestions are wrong.  You don't have to eat more, you have to eat more healthy.  I don't know what your diet consists of so I am taking somewhat of a shot in the dark.  First of all, eat fruits and vegetables.  Preferably raw.  Eat constantly, what I mean by that is, eat every hour or two.  No big meals, say an apple now, carrots in an hour with a bagle.  Combine lean meat (protien) with carbs.  For example, when you sit down for a meal have some chicken and a baked potatoe.  If you are eating lots of fat, chances are you body is just flushing then through.  Avoid caffeen becuase it causes you to loose weight.  Drink water, tea, avoid diet soft drinks...in fact, avoid ALL soft drinks.  That extra sugar is speeding up your metabolism.  Avoid white refined sugar and flour.  Switch to whole grain breads and pasta.  Go to the gym.  Muscle is 3X denser than fat so if you want to gain weight, that is the way to go.  Lift HEAVY!  Enough weight that you fail at about 6 reps.  Don't worry about becoming bulky or muscular.  You are a female and your body does not work that way.  I am so tired of that myth!  Finally you might want to consider hormones.  Birth control pills have caused lots of women to gain weight.  If this not an option there is a product called melatonin.  It's available at most pharmacys and health food stores.  They sell it at Wal-mart.  It's over the counter too.  Take that about 30 minutes before you go to sleep.  It's designed to help regulate your sleep pattern for jet lag and people who work night shifts, but I have seen it cause some people to gain weight.  There are no side effects that I know of except it makes you tired and gain weight.  A book I would look in to is Body for Life By Bill Phillips.  Also you might want to look at another book called The Liver-Cleansing Diet by Sandra Cabot. You want to gain weight in a healthy manner, not with pop, chips, doughnuts and lazyness.  I hope this info helps.

you should really weigh closer to 100 lbs or more even. unless your metabolism is naturally high and gaining weight with normal eating habits is difficult you are underweight right now.

OK,I'm going to give you my honest opinion here and remember it is just that AN OPINION!\n\nI am 5'5" and weigh 120 and think I am fat because I gained so much weight this winter. This is the most I have weighed since I was pregnant and I'm just sick about it!\n\nSo,I will only say that if you are uncomfortable with the weight you are at and it makes you feel fat,then you need to get out and exercise,watch what you eat,and work on making yourself feel better.\n\nIt really doesn't matter what the rest of us think. What matters is how you feel about yourself.\n\nGood luck and be happy!

When you say that you are "covered in fat" is this your opinion or your doctor's.  You can be overfat at 106 if you have no muscle tone, but I doubt this your case.  A doctor or fitness specialist can measure your fat to muscle ratio.  Throw away the scale and get into a fun exercise class.  Stop looking in the mirror and concentrate on feeling strong and healthy.  What the scare and mirror tells you are not the true measure of those things.    \n\nAs an ex-dancer who knew a lot of girls with poor body image and eating disorders and seeing a fellow dancer collapse and die when in college I cannot urge you enough to talk to someone about your poor self image.  I bet you are perfectly adorable as you are right now!

Hi sweetie.  Do you exercise?  You probably need to get out there and move around.  Also, you may not eat much, but watch what you do eat (sugars, etc.).  It's unfortunate, but some people can eat just about anything they want and never gain an ounce.  Others have to watch what they eat closely.\n\nP.S., do not pay attention to the extremely rude comment above me.

I agree with babybuttercup. Eat all your meals, don't skip any and have healthy snacks in between. Also, depending on the job you are doing, muscle weighs more than fat. if you are gaining muscle, that is ok and you will weigh more but be more toned and look like you weigh less. That is ok too. weight isn't everything, it's what you look like you weigh.

As a mom to a girl who is your age, I think you all sound pretty normal to me!  I don't think that girls your age should be so obsessed with your weight!  Sweetie you all are still growing, and your bodies will continue to change for a few more years!  My best advice to you would be to let nature take its course, and to eat healthy and stay fit!  If you are good to your bodies, they will be good to you!

I'm 5'5" and have weighed anywhere between 98-125 pounds during my adult life. (not including pregnancies)\n\nI would like to get back to about 112-115. Anything lower than this and I start to feel weak and tired,low energy,etc...\n\nRight now I am 120 and am not happy with that weight,working on it though!  :)\n\nFor the person that said women that ask this question and said their self esteem is usually low,etc...   I have very good self esteem and am just a very DETERMINED  person,thank you.\n\nEveryone has their own 'comfort weight'. The weight that you feel good about both mentally and physically.\n\nIf you base this on the body mass index chart, the normal weight for someone 5'5" is between 120-140 pounds. (Approx)\n\nFeel good,stay healthy and don't worry about what others think. It is more important that YOU are happy.
