I am really happy with my weight, but my coach wants me to gain...?!
Question: I got weighed today and I am 5' 9 and 119 lbs. I am very happy with my current appearance, yet she wants me to gain weight. what should I do? She thinks I should bulk up, but I believe that's gross.

Well, you're underweight actually for your height, but don't let anyone else, esp. a coach tell you to gain or lose weight. All they care about is winning....that's why so many gymnasts and ice skaters are so prone to eating disorders.....their coaches tell them to lose weight.
depending on what sport your doing. that is a very healthy weight, just nod to your coach and keep the diet your on.
