[QUOTE="redrevis, post: 155087, member: 27435"] Hey Jammer I've been thin all my life. Since about 16 years old I've been 6' 2" and weight 10 stone. I'm now 26 and still the same height and weight. I've done the same as you, spoken to doctors, dietitions, nutritionists, tried all sorts and nothing work sto put weight on. At one point I was eating 4 meals a day and having pints of protein powder shakes with full fat milk and still I put on no weight. I can eat as much as I like and never put it on. When i became type 1 I lost nearly a stone before diagnosis. That was a few months ago and I'm nearly back to 10 stone again. It is frustrating when people don't realise that being thin can be the same mentally/emotionally as someone who is over weight. People think nothing to say to me "I've seen more meat on a lettuce" but wouldn't dream of saying anything off hand like that to someone overweight. I remember in college when getting hugs off girls and them saying, " oh god, you're so thin I can feel all your bones" really helped with the self confidence :( If they hugged someone overweight do you think they would have said "oh god, you're so fat I can feel all your fat" no i don't think so :evil: I've been told the old phrase, you'll fill out in your 30s. All I can say to that is, I'll believe it when I see it. If you find some miracle solution to weight gain please let me know :lol: and no, steroids don't count :P [/QUOTE]
