    ^ That was mean, if your weight is really bothering you, go see a doctor or nutrition :-)

    I wouldn't be worried, at 18 (2 years ago) I was 44kg and 161cm tall. But if you're bothered about it, maybe go see a doctor.

    Not really. I would try bulk up a little.

    are you male or female? also, it would help if you also wrote non-metric units so i wouldn't have to convert them myself to understand, which I'm too lazy to do.

    Some people are just born to be a certain way. You cante help being skinny, just like some people cant help being overweight. A lot of people would say that you're lucky because you'll proabaly never have to diet. Look at all the positives of being skinny and simply try to eat more untill you're cumfortable :)

    You're not that far below the ideal weight. I wouldn't worry about it too much. It's healthier to stay the weight you are than to eat unhealthy foods to bulk up.

    You can be skinny at any age. What is your lifestyle like? This is a better indicator of how normal your skinniness is. Your body will likely change more as you get older, just not as quickly or dramatically as in your adolescent years.

    Maybe if you didnt forcefully puke up every meal into the toilet youd gain some weight. Now excuse me I have some purging to do.
