How hard is it to gain weight? Trust me it is. For many people, it is so easy for them to say to eat more. That is not my case. It has been a struggle. I eat a lot actually. Most people are pretty much amazed of how much I eat. I get my thyroid check, metabolism seems to be fine. Appetite is always there. I eat every 2 hours if I could that is. Depending upon my schedule at work but then again I only work about 2 days out of the week. I’ve been hospitalized, tested, pretty much everything they can think of. It is hard for me to keep weight in, I have not gone over 87 pounds for 10 years max.Not so recently I have changed my BCP (Birth Control Pill) and noticed that my appetite has sky rocketed and gained 7 pounds. Great news!!! however, the problem is it has been 6 months and I havent gone over the hump of the 95 lbs. Oh well, I guess I will just keep on eating!

Good luck to all of you guys.
I must say this is a very rewarding career.
I have enjoyed being a dental hygienist for many years.
