Alright, I'm 6 foot and weigh 138lbs at the age of 16.

For about two years now I've been having weight problems. About 1 1/2 years ago, I was 5'10 and weighing 110lbs!

The only reason that I'm asking this question is because I'm told I'm way too skinny, but in my mind I just see myself as being just a normal thin guy.

Also, In the past couple of years I've struggled through anorexia, but fortunitly I think I've recovering, and recovering nicely.

Answer:
