How To Gain Weight \n\n\n\nThis one seems like a no-brainer, eh? How do you gain weight? You eat. You cannot gain weight without eating... in the exact opposite of losing weight, actually, you cannot gain weight without consuming more calories than you burn off. \n\nThe bigger question, in our weight-loss worshipping world, is why would you want to gain weight? Fact is that sometimes we become too thin, dangerously so, to the point where we begin to suffer all these negative side effects and eventually death. Sometimes gaining weight is a pretty attractive option by comparison. Being at a healthy weight helps every system of our body function better, allows us to heal from damage, and gives us reserves as protection against stress or illness as well. \n\nThe tougher part of weight-gain is how to do it in a healthy manner. Just as rapid weight-loss can be dangerous, so can rapid weight gain. Many EDs who go through rapid recovery end up with too high a bodyfat percentage, too much fat stored around their internal organs, compromised health, and high cholesterol. This is in part because traditional anorexic "recovery" diets are aimed at bulking up the patient as quickly as possible by fat-loading everything they eat with no thought for the health quality of the food being given. \n\nIt's safer to aim for a gain of one or two pounds a week so as to not put undue stress on your recovering system and to know that you're rebuilding bone, muscle, and nutrient stores instead of just frantically storing fat. It's more important to restore your body's protein, elemental, vitamin, water, fat and sugar balances than to simply send the numbers on the scale up. Once you do this, given sufficient raw materials your body will rebuild itself more strongly. \n\n\n \nIn The Beginning\n\nIf you're deciding to gain weight, odds are it's because you're underweight. If you're underweight, barring a purely illness-related weight-loss problem which should really be addressed by a doctor instead, you have probably not been eating enough. If you haven't been eating enough for a while, your digestive system will need to be retrained. Same goes for extended or extensive purging... it screws with your entire system, and there will need to be plenty of time devoted to patience and healing. \n\nExtended periods of time with insufficient solid food intake causes your entire digestive system to slow down and lose efficiency. Amounts of digestive chemicals in production may drop, and the tiny fingerlike cilia that absorb foods in your small intestine may become paralyzed or die off. The peristaltic muscles that move food through your system may weaken or atrophy. Large meals or a lot of food at once may confuse your stomach and intestines to the point where they cramp up and have trouble remembering what to do at all. All this will need to be repaired slowly, given time to reaccustom itself to the concept of processing and utilizing food again. \n\nStart with liquids. Rehydration is extremely important, since without food our overall water content drops significantly, and the digestive process requires a great deal of water. In the first few days of refeeding you may notice a sudden gain of several pounds... this is most likely, if you're doing everything right, your water balance trying to straighten itself out. You may feel bloated for a while as this happens and it's extremely important that you allow it to take care of itself and do not try to correct it with diuretics; limiting caffeine, which acts as a diuretic, may be a good idea here. Potassium can also act as a mild diuretic but do not try to limit that, as it's an important electrolyte and part of rehydration is bringing your electrolytes back up to a good strong level. You may benefit more from drinking water and juice between meals, instead of with meals, as liquids during meals can make your stomach feel fuller and may slow digestion a bit.

you have seen several answers saying this i am sure. but eat smaller meals, try to eat about five times a day. three meals and two snacks. the reason for this is it will speed your body metabolism. by skipping meals your bod wil store fat to use as energy in between meals, by eating more your body will not store it but rather use what you provide. you do not have to eat anything in particular, but make sure to look at things like saturated fats and sugars. \nstart an exercise program, nothing fancy just something that will bring you heart rate up faster. doing this with begin to turn burn calories and build muscle mass. if you seem to gain weight or lose it very slow dont panic, muscle weighs more than fat but it looks better. there are two exercises that will help you with your abs: lay on your back, with your arms our and legs strait. lift your legs up about 10 inches and you head up like doing a crunch. it is called a v-up. because you try to make a v shape wit your body.   another is lay on your back with your feet up, pointing to the sky, also cross your feet. next crunch up and touch the bottoms of you feet. this is called rope climbers. to help more cross your arms over and touch opposing sides. you can look in a mens magazine and find other exercises that will help. it is a strange source but it works.

To make your body lose fat you must train continuously for more than 45 minutes. If you train less than that you are using the energy you got from food intake and then you tend to eat more after your exertions. Remember duration is more important than intensity if you want to lose weight.

Protein and carbohydrates! Vegetables! Eat three good meals a day, and two to three healthy snacks. Don't skip. And exercise. Muscle weighs more than fat, so if you can get on a good regimen of lifting light weights, you can put on muscle and gain the weight. (Even if you just get 2 lb. dumbbells and work out your arms, you'll see a difference in a couple of weeks.)

To gain fat: Eat thousands of calories of junk food daily\n\nTo gain muscle: Make sure you get enough protein. A good target to shoot for is 1 gram per pound of lean body mass. Also, exercises of any type will help to stimulate certain muscles - causing them to grow. Also, it is important to be sure that you are hypercaloric to a degree. Your body must have a surplus of calories in order to ensure that there is enough left over to build muscle.

Okay...try to eat 6 times a day....do 20-45 minutes of cardio atleast 3 times a week. Lifting of course to help build muscle which will help  burn fat stores quicker. Typical meals....here's an example of mine. \n\nMeal 1: \n6 egg whites \n1 C. oats \nwater \n\nMeal 2: \n3 oz. chicken breast \n3 oz. white potatoe \nwater \n\nMeal 3: \n3 oz. chicken breast \n1 Cup brown rice \nwater \n\nMeal 4: \n3 oz. turkey \n3 oz. sweet pot. \nwater \n\nThis gives you an idea....you should eat every 3 hours....this helps speed up the metabolism as well and the water helps too. And you can have all the veggies you wants.

Gain Weight Step 1 - eating!\n\nEating is the first and most important factor that is needed to gain weight. It's simple - you need to eat more calories than you burn. This does not mean eating anything and everything that is not nailed down. Carefully plan your meals with foods that will help you gain lean mass, not fat. I suggest 6 meals. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and three other small meals scheduled throughout the day. The goal is to eat every 2.5 to 3 hours.\n\nFocus on foods such as steak, chicken, fruit, milk, vegetables, cheese and assorted types of nuts. It's recommended to eat 4 - 6 pieces of fresh fruit a day, and at least four tall glasses of milk. Milk is a great, cheap protein source - take advantage of it. A sample snack meal would be a glass of milk, an apple, and a hand full of peanuts.\n\nGain Weight Step 2 - lifting!\n\nAs stated, proper eating is of utmost importance when attempting to gain weight, but if you do not lift weights, the majority of that gained weight will be fat - not muscle.\n\nWhen trying to gain weight, I suggest working out three times a week. You need to lift hard and then recover for the next workout. Focus on the big exercises such as squats, deadlifts, bent-over rows, chin-ups, bench press, & military press. These are the exercises that will turn those extra calories into muscle. You are not going to gain much by doing lateral raises and step-ups every workout. You need the multiple-joint lifts that will shock your system and stimulate your body into growth. Focus on getting strong by adding a small amount of weight each workout. If you focus on strength, size will follow. Case in point, look around at your local gym - the strongest guys are also the biggest.\n\nGain Weight Step 3 - supplements!\n\nTo gain weight, you do not NEED supplements, but they will help you gain the weight quicker. That's what they are, supplements to an already good diet and training program. Think of supplements as the finishing touch.\n\nI like to keep things simple and, therefore, I suggest only two types supplements for those wishing to gain weight. The first is a weight gain shake. The shakes I recommend are ProLab's N Large 2. It's the best value out there. The way N' Large 2  will help is by giving you a large quantity of calories in one small serving. It will provide you with 620 calories in one easy shake and is especially great for people who do not have time for breakfast, or snacks while on the go. Just mix a serving with water or fruit juice and gulp it down in a just a couple of minutes. Get yourself a Shaker Bottle to make it even easier.\n\n\n\n\n(I got these answers from the website below...check it out, it has some great advice)

I tried everything, and nothing, you should not eat fat like that other guy told you, and you should here the other guy about the resting in between for a day or two........ The answer for ur muscles to grow is to eat more, but in a healthier way, add more vegetables and food with a lot of protein, I recommend you to eat supplements or meal replacement, you can buy whey protein and eat it in between your meals and before and after exercising..... that won't give you fat just muscles!

Situps, pushups, running and eating a low fat/low calorie diet.  Be sure to take vitamin pills and drink those energy shakes too only if you are really excersizing hard.  Spend at least 2 hours a day in the gym as well weight lifting beyond the pushups and situps and running.

Some quick and easy get fit tips-\n\nWhen you go to work, the mall, the grocery store, always park in the last spot. Not only do you save the hassle of looking for a spot, but you get alot of extra walking in.\n\nNever use the elevator. Unless you live in Manhattan, of course. If you worked where I do, you'd never use the elevator anyway, cause people get stuck in there all the time.\n\nKeep bottled water on you at all times! If it's there, you'll drink it. You should be refilling that thing about six times a day!\n\nGet other people on the bandwagon, your boyfriend, or your coworkers. They'll guilt you into working out when you don't feel like it.\n\nSwitch all your grains to whole grains. Mr. Whineybutt will get used to it. Switch your dairy all to skim and fat free. Be sneaky and pour the skim milk in the whole milk container if you have to, he'll never notice the difference.\n\nKeep lots of quick healthy snacks around the house and keep those by the stove while you cook. By the time dinner is done, you can just sit down and drink a cup of tea while everyone else eats their fat. Healthy snacks are the easiest snacks, I don't know why more people don't eat them. Raw veggies, fruit, fat free yogurt, cheese, nuts, dried fruits and berries, whole grain cereals, etc.

You'll feel results in a few days. In a few weeks you will see results too. \n\nInstead of jogging two miles every day, consider jogging four miles every other day. Most of your fat burns off after the first 30 minutes of exercise.

The quickest way is to cut out red meats, starches, breads, sugars, alcohal, and sodas.\n\nEat veggies (salads are good), soups, and drink TONS of water. If you get hungry between a meal, drink water to fill up.\n\nIn moderation eat white meats, and fruits (fruits contain natural sugars, and that can put on weight)\n\nPractice portion control. Yes, you'll feel hungry at first, but think of your goal, and soon your stomach will start shrinking and you won't have that feeling anymore.\n\nEat 5 times a day. A small breakfast. A mid-morning snack, such as an apple. A small lunch. A mid-afternoon snack, such as carrots. A lite dinner. Do not eat any later than 7pm (6pm is better.)\n\nGo exercise for at least an hour a day, incorporating weight training. Weight training builds muscle. Muscle burns fat. You get the idea. It also gives tone and definition. \n\nGood luck!!
