People have been inclined to call me too skinny as well even though I'm 140 pounds and 5'7. I have noticed that these comments come from women, not men, who are overweight, just had a baby or whose bodies I would never want to have.

    140 at 5'7 sounds fine to me.... jusy ignore what they say, probably just jealous.

    Do they ever grab you by the arm and say, "Put some meat on dem bones!"

    Yeah, it can be annoying but they're just making a light-hearted joke. As long as you feel healthy in your body, don't even worry about it.

    I would say these comments come from women predominantly because they often feel insecure when around smaller men, therefore it is easier to tell you that your to skinny and "somethings wrong with you" rather than people looking at themselves and realizing they are the ones that might need to change. I graduated high school as a great athlete at 5'9" and only weighed 150 but i also heard the same thing your hearing. I'd say your probably fine, like ClubSilencio said, as long as you feel healthy and your comfortable with it your good. Don't let someone else's opinion of you become your reality
