Quick Question

So I might get yelled at for this but I have continued to do light exercise, like walking on the treadmill, throughout my gaining process. I mean I had to give it up for a short while in the very beginning but I was continuously gaining without fail so I got the thumbs up from my dietician. I wanted to know if my weight gain will still destribute or will it stay where it's at since I was engaging in physucal activity and that would have some effect of how the weight was falling. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. I have to gain some more but am really afraid that it will all go to the exact same places it seems to be going which is my lower half (mostly leg/thigh area). I am especially afraid because I fear that had I not been working out, it would have been even worse and perhaps this is how it will actually be. Blah. 

cardio thins you out, try weight lifting, pilates, yoga or something.

This should be something you could look up in the fitness forums.

It will generally all gain in the one area but re-distribute naturally over time.

It isn't about distribution, the exercise limit is about STRESS. Even walking can stress an underweight body. I continued to walk through my previous bout of gaining (before I lost it due to shoddy doctoring) and I've got arthritic joint pains as a result. This time around I've been pretty much on total bedrest until very recently - and even then it is only walking again, with time limits and accompanying people, and my weight has still distributed normally.

The supposed imbalance in your distribution is in your mind. Stop working out. It doesn't matter if your dietician said okay, because it's clear through the fact you are using exercise to allieviate an irrational fear and not for health reasons tells me you should not be doing it at all.

listen to lala, I am no dietician but I think that if you were to start working out, it would only lead to bad things.  Like a more difficult, prolonged recovery or possible relapse, niether of which you would want to deal with

thanks all for your replies. Lala, while I know it may have come across as me using my exercise as an alleviate to "an irrational fear", I really use it as a means of escape from my depression, which I have been suffering from for quite some time. Undoubtedly I do not want to have pain in the future due to having overdone it at an underweight state so I will reevalutate how much and if I should continue. 

I suffer from depression and I used walking to help with that but when I realised it was hurting me and slowing my progress down I started painting instead. There are less physical ways to take that grey cloud off of your shoulders.
