Answers:
I'm 15 and I had a similar problem!. Not when I was 9 though, when I was about 13!.
Anyway, in my health class last year we spent a lot of time on the MyPyramid!.gov website!. It's really helpful for knowing what you should be eating and what's healthy!. It's also specific to you when you enter your information!.
This link is a dietary planner kind of thing, and it's really helpful:

ok so I'm adding more to answer your other question:
Maybe you don't even have to eat more!. at target and probably some other stores, they have meal replacement shakes that you can drink to get all the vitamins and other things you need without being full!. The part of your stomach that holds your food probably shrank from when you weren't eating much and it will eventually let you put more food in!. (sounds gross, right!?)
I don't have any idea how many calories the meal replacement drinks have or anything, but it should help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

A NORMAL weight teen girl should eat daily:
2 servings of lean protein
3 servings of whole grain bread, cereal, rice, and pasta
2 servings low fat dairy
3 veggies - green, yellow, and leafy [ salad ]
2 fruits
You can eat these at three meals a day; or three meals and two snacks!.
If you are normal or under weight, you can afford to cheat occasionally!.
Also: drink 1/2 gallon of water a day; and
take a daily multivitamin with iron!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know that you are not vegetarian but they have a very good layout of foods and serving suggestions and if you use it you'll not only stay healthy but you'll maintain your current weight!.
Of course you can substitute meat in this if you want to :-)Www@Answer-Health@Com
