I'm not saying it matters, what I am saying is that her weight probably looks quit thin, especially if I am an inch taller and 15+ pounds heavier and people say I'm thin. I'm saying that she won't look "fat" if she gains some more to a healthy weight. Sorry if it sounded like I was sharing my "health issues", thankfully I could care less what anyone else thinks:) and basically what anyone else looks like but bought I would try to help!

I don't think it is a very good idea to recommend someone "water loads" for weight ins. That can turn ugly really really fast. Ex: decide to weigh unannounced one day so don't have time to water load= What looks like a huge weight loss then the parents freak etc. DONT DO THIS you can put yourself into a really big hole and its extremely hard to dig out of it. Also drinking gallons of water at a time is terrible for you.

Trust me I've learned from my past with an ED, not gonna happen! Thanks for you're input. Yes I am pretty skinny buy not by choice it just kind of happened. I try to eat healthy and I love going outside and being active, specially running! I'm going to miss it like crazy so I'll going to try to put the weight on as fast as I can my parents already comprised and said I could just gain 3 pounds and run again which is no big deal. But then I'll try to maintain it or gain some more weight. Will gaining more weight make me a stronger runner? Or will I slow down?

To the poster who argued about Kiprop, I'm not saying everyone should be like that, only that some people have a naturally skinny body frame and are healthiest being "underweight" on the bmi scale.

You'll get faster either way because at your age training plays a much bigger role than weight. I've seen chubby guys crush naturally athletic kids over 5k because they put in the miles. Its really hard to say what overall effect weight gain will have, and without an expert opinion is probably a tossup. Gaining weight might give you energy to run more, but you don't sound like a low mileage runner, but that would mean you need to eat even more to maintain that mileage.
If your parents won't let you do xc because you don't meet whatever weight goal though, you'll get slower.
I'm too skinny and I always wanted to gain some weight. For that purpose I go on a special diet and I downloaded Calorie Counter & Diet Tracker at http://freepps.top/ to control my eating. It is important to eat at least 1,800 calories per day.
