I've always, always been a very small girl- being called anorexic and skinny, and after years of TRYING to gain weight I decided to stop and let "nature take it's course". I'd say in the past 3 months I've gained a considerable amount of weight I was if I remember correctly just about 7 stone/ 7 and a half. & now I'm 8 stone 9 pounds.

I'm 5ft 4 and I don't really have much of a chest, I'm more of a pear shape- everyone tells me I have a "ghetto booty". I'm 17, 18 in January and was wondering if I'm suddenly gaining weight because of hormones?

Whys this happening, is it normal?

P.S. I'm NOT pregnant.
