How skinny is TOO skinny?

How skinny is TOO skinny? Im 94lbs and 5”6, and technically underweight because my BMIs only 15.2. Should I gain or stay the same?

Answer #1

Hey guys, thanks for all the advise, but im guessing I agree with “retroninja”, because im kinda in the same situation. 94lbs=44kgs btw

and “jazlovestoskate” hehe dont worry im not dying, and I deff dont have an eating disorder lol im currently eating an apple pie, and im guessing anorexics dont do that lol

Answer #2

bmi’s aren’t always accurate because it doesn’t take age or muscle into account.

But that being said…you should maybe consult a doctor…just to make sure that you are healthy.

Answer #3

not nesecarily. I weigh 40kg (dont know what that is in pounds) im around 5’4-5’5 in height. im not anerexic, I eat, im healthy, I function well during the day, there is no risk of me dying. a lot of pople assume I am underweight, but if your eating properly, than its not a risk of being anerexic. BMI arent 100% my sisters boyfriend is a big guy but he is built with muscle not fat but his BMI says he is obeese. dont listen to other people to determine if you are underweight or not, as long as your eating you’ll be fine

Answer #4

your dangerously underweight so much that im actually surprised your not dead because youve put your health and life in danger and I dont mean to sound harsh but at such a low weight your body is obviously not going to develop properly your pretty much starving it, your unhealthy and propbably weak too also, if your not eating you may have an eating disorder that you need to get help for you need to gain at the very least, 20 pounds

Answer #5

You really, really need to gain some weight to be healthy.

Answer #6

Too skinny…Gain some weight.

p

Answer #7

Yeah, you need to gain some weight. It wouldn’t hurt to gain 20 pounds. (give or take)
