I am really, really thin. I am 17, male, 5ft 5 and I have really small hands and feet. I eat a lot but it doesn't show and my should muscles strain really easily after just 10 press ups where as I used to find press ups fairly easy 5 years ago. I was born 8 weeks early is there something medically wrong with me.

It's possible that you have a hormonal condition. Your height is probably fine but your metabolism might make it so that you don't gain weight and possibly causes your muscles to atrophy. I don't think prematurity has anything to do with it. Without knowing more, it's difficult to give a more precise diagnosis but Addison's disease is something you could ask your doctor about.
Good luck!
