Madjules what are you on about!?

Jacie, you are at a healthy weight for your height, and slightly protruding ribs and collarbones are perfectly normal in healthy people!. I am slightly taller and weigh a stone more than you - I also have a healthy BMI - and I have a protruding collarbone and you can see my ribs slightly, because I dont have much body fat!. My weight is slightly higher than normal due to muscle (I train everyday)!.

Hm!.!.!. You sound like you're a healthy weight for your size, but having your ribs stick out normally means you're way too skinny!.
How did you lose that weight!? Did you do it by eating healthily and exercising, or some other, less healthy way!?
I really don't know why your ribs stick out!. I would ask your doctor at your next check-up!. Until then, make sure you're getting at least 1,500 calories a day and exercising 30 min a day, and you'll be fine!. Remember, if you exercise more, eat more, if you exercise less, eat a little less!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well,i think is kinda normal when you lose weight fast,but eating a lil bit more of rice and bread wouldn't be bad at all!.!.!.you may have a different bone structure,i mean,everyone does,ive met girls who also have the chest bone sticked out and they're not skinny like a broom stick!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
