    Re: How to gain weight?

    Do you mean weight, or do you mean muscle mass? They're two fairly different things.

    Re: How to gain weight?

    gaining weight is a lot easier than losing it, how much do you want to gain?
    what is your idea of 'a person that eats alot'? do you do any sport/exercise/weights?
    post your typical daily food intake and perhaps we can help

    Re: How to gain weight?

    I know some people who really struggle to put on weight, I hate them for it

    Basically more calories, if you dont want to be a porker make sure you are not eating too much crap. But more pasta, more meat etc. Try the mass gainers you get from supplement places - basically protein shakes with tons of extra stuff in there I think?

    If you are working out high weight exercises like squats (great way to build mass)

    If you smoke, stop.

    If you don't work out, work out. Not jogging, weights 'n that.

    Eat more grub.

    Drink a few protein powder shakes each day. Cheap UK Supplements - Serious Mass

    Sorted.

    Re: How to gain weight?

    Woman: I love my husband more than anything.

    Man: Which is why I was surprised to find her sleeping with the teenager next door.

    Woman: Now I take each day one day at a time. I didn’t know what I had until it was almost gone. Now I’m faithful, and haven’t terminated a pregnancy in over a year! I stopped obsessing about my weight, and now there’s just more of me to love. They say America’s fatter than ever. But when you’re number one, it’s time to celebrate! And why not celebrate with cake? Every day!

    Instead of breakfast, lunch and dinner, have 5 smaller meals instead over the course of the day.

    Re: How to gain weight?

    Thanks all for the suggestions! It may be a blessing but sometime its rather difficult to buy clothes and being thin makes you look sick too. I prefer to be average size rather than on the thin side.
