dont listen to the people who told you to eat junk food.
That will go to the wrong places.
Eat lots of protein and eat big meals.
try to refrain from eating every 4 hours, because that wil just make your metabolism faster and you will be skinnier.
ask the school nurse and if you need to gain weight try bee propolis
As long as ya eat a balanced diet and your not starving yourself your fine the way you are
If you are 5'7 and only 105 pounds, you are seriously underweight. Your friend is wrong by telling you to eat junk food, because that isn't good for anyone. However, you definately should consider gaining weight.
At 5'7 your ideal weight would be 135 lbs so at 105 lbs you are probably about 10 lbs underweight.
As you apparently have a muscular physique you would expect to weigh a lot more than 105 lbs as muscles weigh a lot more than flabby fat. Perhaps you have a very small frame with not much width and thickness or depth.
Thriving on junk food is the perfect recipe for ill health.
