Today, my parents yelled at me for ordering too much fast food. The only reason I’m doing it is because there isn’t any food in the house. Not only that but I’m also trying to gain weight. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while at my mom’s house, my mom told me that I need to seriously curb my food intake. Then I went to my dad’s house and he told me I need to gain weight. I can’t win here. FML
Today, despite begging my parents to get food other than diet and weight loss stuff, they refused. I'm bullied for being skinny on a daily basis. FML
Today, my parents decided to go on a diet. This would be perfectly fine if they didn’t insist I go on one too. I weigh less than 90 pounds and am underweight for my height. FML
Today, I told my parents that I was going on a diet to lose weight and I wanted their support. They brought home donuts and pizza for dinner. FML
Today, the school called my dad telling him they want to put me on a diet, because they're worried about my weight. FML
Today, my mum was saying she needs to gain weight because she was underweight according to her doctor. She then said she's going to eat like me in order to gain more weight. FML
Today, my already disabled mother is on the brink of becoming bedridden due to her weight. I flat out refused to buy fast food or unhealthy food to keep in the fridge. She started screaming through the wall that I was beating her, until the neighbors called the cops. Sadly, this isn’t the first time. FML
Today, my mom complained that I never do anything nice for her, so while out shopping I bought her favorite chocolate bar. When I got home, she screamed at me because she’s on a diet. FML
Today, my mom tried to ground me. In the apartment that I own. Because I didn't eat enough of the dinner that I'd made. FML
Today, my mom asked me if I had an eating problem because I've been eating less. I only started eating less because she told me I ate too much. FML

There are people whose metabolisms don’t let them put on or retain weight very easily that can end up twiggy and scrawny, and they want to put on weight. Think of the bean pile of a guy who would like some muscle or the girl with a flat chest, no hips and no butt that would like some curves. Just cause most of us probably need to lose 20lbs, doesn’t mean there aren’t some lucky few who can eat what they want and not look like a blimp.

hey I've been in the underweight section of the BMI scale for most of my life and only recently broke into the normal weight percentile. the only thing it took was to eat 3 times a day everyday. just because we're skinny doesn't mean we have an excuse to binge-eat junk food, it'll clog your arteries/raise your blood sugar/raise your cholesterol etc. not an excuse to not exercise either. also, this may not apply to everyone, but if you have fast metabolism like I do, I lose the weight I gained by eating junk food quite quickly too. as for what I eat, I live in an Asian household so I mainly eat rice everyday with things like lettuce in garlic sauce, egg with tomato and shrimp, braised pork, and simmered milkfish. rant over!

You're trying to gain weight? Is this some concept I'm too American to understand?

There is so much wrong with your post. You say "the only reason", then proceed to list a 2nd reason. You say you order fast food to gain weight, but there are much healthier ways to go about that. Since you seem to have money you could get groceries delivered to you instead of fast food. YDI.

Steer clear of the junk food; your body will thank you for it. Try to use healthier foods, high in protein, and moderate exercise. How old are you? Most people, as they get older, gain weight whether they like it or not. Do your parents have a similar metabolism?
