Why am I gaining weight?

I don't see why im gaining weight. I dance, show horses, play sports, and I've gained 15 pounds throughout the year. I haven't grown any taller though. I don't like a lot of foods. I rarely eat at fast food joints. I hate pork, bacon, most chicken, hamburgers, and other stuff. I drink 9 + bottles of water throughout the day. Every morning for breakfast, I drink carnation instant breakfast, which is packed with a ton of vitamins and stuff. I eat a sandwich and some chips for lunch, I dinner between 3-5 o' clock, and eat a snack before I go to bed. I do not get how I gained any weight! I think it's from stress because I was skinny until I got into 5th grade. Now I'm overweight. I started getting heavier in 5th grade because one of my parents passed away and I think I got too stressed or something. A little help?

Well, it could be that your gaining muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat. It sounds like your doing the right thing. But go to your doctor to see what they think. Maybe it's something else that's causing you to gain this weight. they might refer you to a nutritionist. Good luck with this!
Reply:Its probably muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat. sorry to hear about your parents. If you can tell there is no significant muscle throughout your body, its probably those darned chips and sandwich you eat for lunch. Tomorrow, check the fat content of everything you eat. Don't eat anything with more than 4 grams of fat, and don't eat more than 4 meals a day.
