14 is an age where the body is testing your genetic make up. At 17-18 you will have a better idea of physical structure and how to dress to compliment your best features.

At 14 I was a runt and skinny and at 19 was average height and still skinny. Other 14 year olds were much taller than me and ended up at the same place as me in height.

The best indicator is look at your parents, average their heights, add 1 1/2 inches for females and 3 inches for males, and that should approximate your end point. A geneticist told me this at a well known children's hospital. Not a fool proof method but it may help you understand yourself better.

it could be your genetics.. my daughter is like this. try adding more protein to your meals... eggs, red meat, nuts... also add more carbs - like potatos... keep it health though. this will help you add some weight. good luck!

no you are not a freak!! don't tell yourself that just because your skiny.. i had this problem too .... you just need to wait a while .. i just started gainig weight when i turned 14.. so just hang on ... the weight will come.. but hopefully not too much weight i hope!!!=]]] good luck!

SAME THING HERE!!! u have a high matabulism or however its spelled.. it suxs athe moment but itll catch up with u when u get older.. u cant gain wait by eating (trust me i ate like a pig and im still SUPER skinny).. so try working out so instead of gaining fat ull get muscle :) hope i could help
