| | There are a million products on the market to help people lose weight, but there are plenty of people like myself that have for years been trying to put on weight, I would like to see something like this trialed in Australia. I am 40 years old and basically a size 6. it is impossible to find clothes that fit and are acceptable. I am not an exercise addict, i eat a great deal but just can't get my weight over 46kg. Im tired of people telling me to go get a hamburger. I am not anerexic. | | | |

| | My husband has been trying to put on weight for years, he gets so sick of being accused of being on drugs because he is so thin, he wears big jumpers even in summer because people seem to think that it's ok to pick on skinny people, he gets called skelletal and other names by people who would be affended if someone picked on their weight. | | | |

| The same goes for 2 of my Sister in Laws and my 2 nieces. Firstly, both of my SILs are around the 48kg mark and cannot put on any extra weight, no matter how hard they try. The doctors worry because they are breastfeeding. By the way, my nephews are doing well. They are gaining the correct amount of weight etc... And, my SIL struggles to get her girls to put on weight. They lead healthy, active lives and are just a slim build.
I think that some people are genetically slim. It just can't be helped. But, if a doctor seems to think there is a problem, there should be some supplements available just as there are for slimmers. And it would be great if Vibe Village would be able to trial these products. | | | |
