I weigh 100 pounds but I don't feel skinny?!


Question: I weigh 100 pounds but I don't feel skinny!?
I don't know what's wrong with me!. I'm 17 years old, 5'8" tall, and I weighed myself a couple days ago to see that my weight has dropped to 100 lbs!. My sister is the same height as me and three years younger and she weighs 115!.
I'm not anorexic because I eat normal meals everyday, I just don't know why my weight dropped so low!. When I look in the mirror I feel like I look just like all the other girls in my class, but at school everyone's always telling me what a stick I am, and how skinny I am!.
I want to look like everyone else and I always thought I did, but apparently not!. I still feel like my stomach isn't flat enough, which everyone thinks is crazy!.
How can I gain weight and still look good!? I want to gain weight in my legs because they're so stick skinny, I hate them!. I never want to wear shorts or skirts because of it!.
I just don't know what to do!. I feel so ugly and nerdy all the time!. I know I'd be so much prettier if I could just gain some more weight!. :(Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
First of all, NO ONE should be calling you "skinny"!. That is disrespectful!. That is like walking up to someone and telling them they are fat!. Not happening!

At 17, your metabolism is racing and burning more calories than you are taking in, so, basically, you need to give it more calories!! When you say you are eating "normal", I believe you, but, because you are using so much energy (you must be a busy girl) you need more calories!.There are food supplements that are high in calories and nutrition, so consider that!. And who doesn't like ice cream--- summer is almost here -- indulge!. Good luck KWww@Answer-Health@Com
