Many are jealous: We now have more overweight people than normal wt, so being a but thin maybe better for health reasons. So, i would not complain to your friends! most folks are heavy because of extra fat, not extra muscle. Body builders gain wt/muscles because they eat well and lift/push heavy weights. So, eat well, add wt bearing exercise. Consult a nutritionist and personal trainer if you need help. Good luck.
