I don't feel or seem to look any different, and I certainly dont believe it. Yeah I'm 144 right now, but what would I look like with 19 extra pounds? I feel like that's a lot. Now my mom is forcing me to eat fattier foods and more often, making me check my weight all the time, and wants me to get blood tests, etc, if my weight doesn't go up. First of all I think shes freaking out over nothing, and second of all I don't want to put on weight or know if I can. I just have a really high metabolism!
I like where I am and I'm already feeling really sluggish from eating Popcorn Chicken all the time and sitting around playing Guild Wars with the crew. I just can't imagine eating more(considering I already eat a lot) and I wish mom would just drop it; I mean my brother looks like more of a stick insect then I do. I don't feel sick at all and I wish she would stop saying that I could have a bunch of things wrong with me. So I don't know what to do now: either put on the weight so she will drop it and then go back to normal, or tell her I'm not going to the doctor and have her mad and on me about it all the time?

Just tell her you want to be lean for the females.
Or eat a massive burger in front of her.
To be honest, I didn't even notice any weight change at all.
Oh my god, my mom does the exact same thing. Even though I've showed her multiple times that I'm exactly normal weight according to the BMI (http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/). She'll grab my arm and shake it around, claiming that I'm "too skinny" and whatnot. I had a conversation with Dan a while ago about it... Even though you'd think it's flattering to be called skinny instead of fat, I almost think it's worse being called too skinny, isn't it? It's not like you're anorexic or anything.
Anyway, how I got my mom to stop was just sitting her down and telling her that it hurts my self-image for her to be worrying so much when I'm perfectly comfortable with my body right now. (And I showed her the BMI again.) Your mom really just cares about you a lot, and hearing that from you will probably quell her fears; at least for the time being. :)
PS. I think Ongoing Melody has gone back to posting music again! And I just about peed my pants when I saw a new song from blanc.'s upcoming album!! I'm so excited, it sounds reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally good. I wish the whole Monkey Majik crew would hurry up and make their US debut already. Seriously, half their songs are in English anyway. XD
Yeah J9, I haven't noticed anything either. But yeah, I guess I'll just have to be eating around her at all times. xD
Thanks for the BMI link Lori, it turns out I'm right in the middle of the Normal Weight Category so I'll have that to use against her! muhaha. But yeah, I hate when my mom says she thinks i'm not eating or says my legs look like bones or whatever. So wack!
I'll check out the new song soon, sounds exciting! I hope she puts the whole album up eventually. I think it would be great if they came to America, we just need to start a cult or something to get enough people interested. XD
