I'm underweight but I feel sick when I eat! How do I gain weight?
I recently went to a summer camp with horrible food, and I came back pretty underweight. I'm trying to get back to normal, but everytime I eat I can't handle more than a few bites! I'm guessing my stomach shrunk or something, but I feel sick when I eat more than that. I hate being skinny (it looks gross) and I want to get back to normal! How else can I enlarge my stomach? (Also, every time I get in a car since camp I've gotten seriously carsick, even if its only a few minutes on flat roads.)

I am really underweight (BMI of 16.8) but I just can't gain weight, what do I do?
I am freakishly skinny, I scare myself, I am like a toothpick...and I'm sick of it. I am way too tired of someone yelling out to me "hey, go eat some fires skinny", "I'm going to snap you in half like a toothpick", or being called anorexic. I eat normally (well, not as healthy as I should) but I eat proper portions...I eat the same as everyone else, sometimes even more. I have tried the eat nothing but junk food diet, I gain just a few pounds, but the minute I stop I loose the weight again. Then when I had appendicitis and had to go to emergency the doctors were pounding me with questions because they though I had an eating disorder. During that hospital stay (about 2 years ago) I lost 15 pounds (SO I WAS LIKE 123 POUNDS [I'm 6'4"])...at that point I looked like I was going to fall over and die I was so skinny. But within a week or two I gained the weight back, but no more then before. I don't know what to try...I'm a teenager, but still WAY skinnier than everyone else.
I am 30 pounds underweight. What do I do?
I eat 800-1,200 calories a day and I hardly like eating so I don't want to eat anymore. My psychologist said I have to drink Ensure Plus 3 times a day. When I gain weight and stop drinking Ensure, I'm assuming I'll just lose all the weight. What am I supposed to do then to maintain a higher weight? I don't like exercising much but I walk briskly to class (at least 30 minutes a day and I'm taking a pilates course next semester to get more exercise). I'm 19 years old, 107 pounds without clothes, and 5' 8". Is the only way to gain weight to eat more or gain muscle through working out?
