    Hi, I am a 17 year-old endomorph/ mesomorph, female. When I was younger I was always a healthy little kid and just a little chubby. Over the years I started gaining more weight. Once I started high school I began losing weight and shaping up because I was quite active. Over the last year I got really sick and lost A LOT more weight. Now, that I am no longer sick I am gaining weight, but it’s all in my abdomen and my thighs. I have been trying so many workouts to tone up and build muscle, but nothing seems to be working like it used to. However, the weight in my abdomen is a little weird. I’m not wide, however. On the contrary, I’ve got good curves, but if you look at me from the side, I look a bit pregnant. It’s not blotation, either. I was wondering if maybe you had some information for me. I plan to try some of the things you have posted on the site about workouts and diet, but I would like to know if there are other things I should do as well. Thank you so much.
