Is this normal?

I used to be skinny a couple of years ago.

Now I´m 6´3 210 pds and musuclar.

However I still feel like I´m a skinny bastard. Anybody else feel that way?

It might go into the category of muscular dysmorphia. A psychological issue where you view your body differently than others see it. No matter how big you are, you feel like you aren't that big. I know a guy thats almost exactly like you. He is 6' 3" and weighed 170 in high school and now he's about 205 but still feels like he is too skinny. Its similar to how people with an eating disorder always say they look fat when they are 90 pounds.

I am 5 7.5 or 5 8 and I weight 165 with 10% bodyfat (just measured today at gym). I personally think im still skinny because i have not reached my goal of 170. like the previous posters said, it is a mental thing. People say that I am muscular, but my satisfaction level of how i want to look is still not fulfilled.

It must have to do with the fact that I see myself everyday in the mirror, so I don´t notice a difference.

I´m aiming for 240 pds.
