TX,\nYou may be the type who has to do a lot of physical exercise to gain.  The gain would be muscle weight and not fat weight.  It sounds like your body does not store fat easily, which is unusual.  But it may be true.  I have seen very thin men gain large amounts of muscle weight when a very thorough exercise regimen has been adopted.  It may surprise you.

Honey have you been checked for hyperthyroidism? You say you eat all the time but dont gain weight, have the doc check you for anything that could be causing that first, if you havent already. \nDONT just go and eat fatty foods, that will just end up giving you health problems. Try more proteins and meats (if your not a vegetarian), maybe get a weight building supplement from a health store.

I have been trying to gain weight for like 4 years and I finally am now- do this,\ncount how many calories you eat in a normal day, the next day increase it by 500 or more, do that for the week, and increase it by another 500 the next week. \nDrink boost plus, you can get it at a cvs or walgreens, the vanilla flavor is the best. Drink 3 a day but DONT skip any meals. Drink lots of water and get lots of sleep. \nBut most of all, I think the boost plus' helps most\ngood luck\n\nas for how fast, if you want to gain 20 lbs im guessing like 2 months, healthily

Simple: Eat healthy in moderation, workout as often as possible and don't crash diet.  It makes you gain weight in the long run.

I have the same problem...I am almost the same height and weight as you. Just eat healthy and try to have a snack whenever you think of it...something with protein is good. Nuts are good to snack on. Or, apples with peanut butter. I like to buy yogurt drinks since they're good for when you're on the run. But, it's very tough to gain weight if you have a fast metabolism....try not to worry that much about it. You are how you are. Being healthy is the most important thing.

You be a lucky one, first you need to identify where you would like the weight and when you figure that out, you need to find a exercise program to build up the muscle there.  It will entail some of the diet, but I do not recommend you just eating junk food to gain weight, it will go where you do not want it and then it will refuse to leave.  Do it intelligently and be thankfull you have that ability.\n\nJohn B.

you may think your eating a lot. The only way to gain weight it to eat an excess of calories. obviously your not eating enough. Use fitday.com for a couple of days and actually track your nutrient intake.  shoot for a minimum of 3000 calories. if you still dont gain up by 250 each week to keep fat gain to a minimum. \n\no yeah dont forget the gym. get in there and use big compound lifts to rev up those larger muscle groups and start the growing. \n\ngood luck

That can cause you to gain weight.  I would at least try to eat something.  If you don't eat, your body stores fat becasue it thinks its being starved.  Your metabolism will slow and then when you do eat again, it will continue to store fat because it doesn't want to be deprived of food again and your metabolism will still stay low so you wont burn the calories as fast.  If you aren't that hungry try to at least have some fruit or yogurt or nuts for protein.

Even when you want to gain weight, your calories should come from foods that are good for you.\n\n- Cut out empty calorie foods such as sugary snacks and white flour foods. Breads, pastas and cereals should come from whole grains.\n- Good sources of protein include organic meats, fish, and organic poultry.\n- Drink protein-rich beverages (e.g. milk-based fruit shakes).\n- Have fruit juices between meals.\n- Munch on nuts and seeds, which are high in calories and many other nutrients.\n- Increase the number of meals per day to 5 or 6 small balanced meals.\n\nProtein powders and shakes can be added as meals. Some are flavored and only need added water and some others can blended with water or your choice of juices to improve the taste. It would be a plus to add a small amount of flax seed oil and some psillium powder to add some healthy fiber. \n\nYou may find these sites helpful:\nhttp://www.mckinley.uiuc.edu/Handouts/pdfs/gaining_weight.pdf\nhttp://www.suplimednutrients.com/articles/healthy-weight-gain.php\n\nGood luck...

How bout walking atleast 30 minutes each day? I learned a few times ago that you need atelast 30 minutes of exercise a day to live longer and have a happy healthy body. And eating healthy foods or NO high callories foods if I diet is hard. Or you could have a limit of how many calories you eat if the no high calory foods is hard too. You could also try yoga, or those videotapes that do exercises in the same place where you move your arms and legs. Thats not extreme exercise. (And don't starve yourslef of no food and you know that your hungry. That will make you gain weight beacuse your body will think your stranded and store fat so you can survive longer.) Hey, no beggie on the weight thing, I thought that I was so fat one point in my life I tried to Starve myself. Then my mom warned me about how I would gain weight, instead of loosing it from starving myslef. But at that point of time I thought pretty much other things about myself too, but things got better fir me and now I live a happy life!!! :-) And you can too. Yes, I know it(your weight) doesn't come off at once, but it does come off every little bit of the time. And eventally you will see a difference in your clothes sizes. :-)\n\nHope I could help! Good Luck!

Weight gain comes down to this formula;\n\n*Consuming many more calories than you are burning. \n*Doing a well-structured weight training program \n*Eating the right combination of nutrients (to gain muscle instead of fat). \n\n\nIf it seems that you can't gain weight chances are that you have a fast-burning metabolism, and are predominantly an ectomorphic body type. \n\nYou will need to eat large quantities of food, and eating it often. See the Gain Weight Calculator for exact calculations on daily calories and nutrient levels. \n\nThis MUST be combined with a good weight training program, otherwise ALL that food will be stored as fat. \n\n\n\nDon't Ever Miss Meals \nDon't ever miss meals (such as breakfast) - it is important to eat often. Whey protein and weight gain powders can help - simply because it's easier to consume the calories in a liquid form than it is to chew your way through them. Sometimes you may need to eat so much, that it feels like you're eating all the time - and certain foods may start to become irritating.\n\nLots of Sleep \nIf you don't get much sleep, it's time to start sleeping more - to slow down, and become a little less active. If you exercise a lot it may be time to slow down here as well - no more than 20 minutes 3 times a week.

If you eat regularly, don't worry about it, some of us have faster metabolism's than others. I am underweight to but I eat normally, everyones born different, and one day it will catch up to you anyway, whether you think your too skinny, someone else may think your perfect, or if you think your just right, someone may think your overweight. No matter what you're not going to make everyone happy, theres always going to be people with different opinions, I think people need to mind there own business. If you look healthy, and eat healthy, don't listen to anyone else.

Try to eat 3-4 meals a day with a bit larger portions.  Drink 2 meal replacement shakes (like Slimfast) for snacks.  \n\nYou can gain roughly 2 pounds a week.
