I am a 16 year old male my body weight is 107.3 I am 5 feet inches, my bmi is 17.3 I am very underweight with a fast metabolism. I have been eating pretty regularly and I am eating a more balanced diet than I used to. I have been doing more snacking than eating an actual meal, I did eat a good meal yesterday though. This is very frustrating that I cannot seem to gain any weight no matter how hard I try. I feel as though I am going to be "twig boy" forever. All of my family makes comments about my weight and that I should eat more. It's just hard for me to eat a complete meal in one sitting, I have to work at it for a few hours just to finish it. I have tried stimulating my appetite with cannabis but to no avail I do not get the munchies unfortunately. My mother told me to just force myself to eat, that is something I don't think I am able to do. A lot of my self consciousness comes from me being underweight.

Any suggestions are appreciated

If your going to put on weight you want it too be muscle. It's heavier than fat and you will be more toned than rounded. Have you tried weight training?
