Im a 13 year old boy and quite skinny. I eat a ton of food like heaping mounds of pasta and salad. I have a few ribs showing and i cant get rid of them. I can eat 4 big macs. I dont like to eat them but i dicided to try it to see if i can gain any weight. im still just as skinny. my arms are tiny but i am one of the strongest kids in my class

I think this question would be better the the "VT General Hospital" section, seeing as it's not really an eating disorder. There's a thread in there called Healthy Ways to Gain Weight.
However, I would say you just have a high metabolism. You'll most likely start gaining weight when you get a bit older and the hormones that go with puberty start really setting in.

Yeah buddy your 13, you could eat a whole McDonalds and not gain a Kilo, its because of your age and your High Metabolism, when you begin to grow older you will fill out. Its all apart of growing up and Puberty. Be glad that you can do that, as many people wish they would be able to eat eat eat and have no effect of their weight. Enjoy it while you can :)
If you are really concerned that there is something wrong, then just pop into your doctors for a check up, couldn't hurt. But there shouldn't be a problem :)
