I’m 5’0 and 102lbs. How can I put on some weight?

That’s right! You heard me!
I’ve been thin all my life. I got bullied for being skinny. Two bigger girls in middle school would harass me for being skinny and “stealing the cute guys away from them.” In high school I went from 95lbs to 100lbs. I do maintain a healthy life style but I’m so fed up with being thin.
I wanna put on weight so I can be healthier. Girls that are naturally curvy should consider themselves lucky. They have the bodies most girls and women want! Men LOVE curves on a woman. Let’s face it, nobody wants to be skinny. Naturally thick or bigger girls should accept themselves and trust me, being thin isn’t always healthy and isn’t always good. I’ve envy thick women. Not every female wants to be thin/slim.
I want to get to at least 120lbs. Plus I’m petite and tiny built. I don’t wanna be overweight.

You may want to see about getting a physical trainer, especially one that will assist you with a good diet plan. It's possible that you simply don't eat enough protein. I would suggest consulting with an expert.

@DunningKruger Yeah that’s probably a great idea. My friends thought I was crazy for wanting to put on weight but I wanna look healthy. Not every lady wants to be thin and not ever man wants a thin woman. They like them thick. Everyone is into thick bodies now.

@PetiteJulie01 You will thank your lucky stars when you get into your 30s and all the other girls are bemoaning constantly having to diet or that they can't find cute clothes that fit or what have you and you're still cute and petite, just naturally a bit more curvier. Also remember that 90 percent of attraction is personality.

@DunningKruger Yeah that’s true. Some of the girls that were skinny definitely gained a LOT of weight

@PetiteJulie01 You get into your 20s and you still eat like you did as a teenager but your adolescent metabolism doesn't fire as hot anymore. If you maintain a healthy diet and a good exercise routine, you may increase your weight and curves more as muscle than fat. It's a lot easier to keep the fat off than to take it off once it's there, so you're starting from an enviable position.
