Eat high calorie meal and work out to build muscles. I know that you would think that you would loose weight if you work out but just remember that muscle weighs more than fat.

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)

The healthier you get the more efficient your body will be. I suggest that the ten pounds you're hoping to gain is muscle not fat. But still eat regularly not too much sugar in your meal not too less. Exercise a lot. Every morning do stretches, sit-ups, push-ups. And when you get stronger do more everyday. Do that and you will be healthier. Your self-esteem might be better if you do this too. Your lungs probably will be stronger so you can hold your breath longer. A healthy body, a great mind, a great soul.

For starters increase your dietary intake of good carbs and protein. I like the nytrowhey for hard gainers. Great stuff. Also creatine definately works great\nThe quickest way to put on weight(good weight) is a combination of weight training, supplementation, rest and diet. Everyday make sure you get ample rest 9 hours at least. Join a gym and get start training hard, this will increase your appetite for food. Get down 6 or more meals a day filled with red meat, chicken, vegetables and some carbs. Whether it be potatoes, rice, pasta, don't be scared of the carbs. Use a weight gainer such as Universal Nutrition Muscle Juice, along with creatine and Universal Animal Pak. Consistency as in anything else in life will bring results. You will look and feel great using this method. Remember muscle is heavier than fat, and more visibly appealing, so rather than just eating alone weight train, supplement, diet, and rest

I used to be very thin.  I got no girls and the guys all thought I was weak even though I was actually pretty healthy and strong. \n\nAnyway, I stopped smoking cigarettes, and I started going to the gym.  I went kind of crazy but I recommend you go pretty heavy but slow and reasonable.  \n\nGet yourself a basic book on bodybuilding.  Basic!  \n\nDon't worry about supplements but here is the secret which made me gain 5o pounds in 5 months.  Eat like you are crazy.  \n\nI don't mean big amounts at one time but if you consume 800 quality calories every hour(set an alarm).\n\nI ate normal foods.  But absolutley not chocolate or candy.  This stuff will burn off too quickly.\n\nI ate alot of chicken sandwiches with cheese and monster cheese burgers. Fried chicken, potato salad.  Vegetables are important but eat those last after you ate some heavy stuff.  \n\nAnd finally, don't go overboard.  Thin people look really cool in their clothes.  And later in life you will be happy to be thin and probably increase you life span by staying thin.  \n\nBut, right now you want chics and that is understandable.  Put on about 15 kilos and be done with it.  You won't lose it again after you gain it.\n\nI am glad I put on wieght, but right now I have a nice middle sized body and I am not sef conscious at all.  \n\nAlso, get somoe cool clothes.  You don't have to spend a lot of money but try to fashion it up a bit.  \n\nAnd also, getting girls is a numbers game.  You said you don't "attract" the girls.  How do you know?  Anyway, it doesn't normally work like that.  You have to be proactive and learn that if you get rejected, that is just one more rejection closer to the one(or two) that are going to say OK.\n\nAlso, you are pretty young.  Girls your age are somtimes pretty shallow.  They care about cars, money, popularity, etc.  The wonderful thing about those kind is that they are very easy to manipulate once you finally turn the tables. \n\nAnd you won't feel guilty about manipulating them.  They are bitches right?\n\nBut don't treat the nice ones bad.  Treat them nice and appreciate them.  But, always kind of keep in mind that you could get burned by a chic that you really like.  If you are prepared for it and realize that there is always another one then this won't hurt you.\n\nWomen sometimes call us pigs but sometimes they create the loathsome woman-haters by showing themselves to be unworthy of a man's sincerety.  It works the other way too.\n\nGirls your age would prefer to get the shalloe glory from telling their friends who they rejected, than to just actually have a boyfriend and be getting shagged.  \n\nBut later, after about age 25, if you haven't already turned the tables then the table will turn automatically.\n\nThey will be getting fat and old and leeching for a man to marry.  While a man usually just gets more distinguished looking with age.  And you, you will be your tall svelt self, and buddy, you will be dangerous.

Hi,\n\n     I know how it hurts when people tease you about how thin you look. Beleive me i was in the same category as you, i was very thin that you could count the number of bones in my body. \n\nThe reason for this my friend is very simple, our metabolism rates are very high. And yes as you said eating a lot does not help as well, and yes if we try too much we will end up with a big tummy. \n\nI will tell you what i did, see if ti helps you. First of all no taking up any artificial weight gainers and stuff, because if by any chance you gain weight from them and bloat up it is very hard to get back in shape as normally the supplements is taken without proper knowledge will affect the hormone system.\n\nTake care of what you eat, incorporate foods containing lots of proteins, vitamins and minerals. Don't overeat carbs and fat as they won't help you much because of your metabolism rates. And to know about proteins, vits and minerals you need not be a doc, check the nutrition chart on every pack. \n\nExercise is very important, maybe going to gym should help, but again it will take time before you start to slowly gain weight, also while exercising make sure you give a lot of rest between every exercise you do otherwise you will be over training because your metabolism rate is too fast. So patience is very important, but beleive me, if you gain weight slowly it is not dangerous for you and will be maintained even if you don't exercise for aometime due to commitments.\n\nHope this helps you, if you want any further discussion on this mail me. All the best and don't worry about people teasing you because they are doing a big mistake by under estimating you.

The best way to increase your weight is to always exceed your daily energy requirements. Find out exactly how many calories you burn on a daily basis through an assessment of your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)& AMR (Active Metabolic Rate). Once you have these numbers, it's simple math. Ensure you are above or consuming more calories than your body burns on a daily basis and you should increase your mass with the appropriate weight training regimen. \n\nhttp://preventdisease.com/healthtools/articles/bmr.html\n\nHere are some tips:\n1) always eat a heavy complex carb meal (pasta/rice)at least 1-2 hours before going to sleep.\n2) try weight gainer shakes at your local health food store.\n3) STAY AWAY FROM CARDIO (this really should be a short-term ideally since refraining from cardiovascular exercise can jepordize long-term health). For your purposes in the short-term, cardio will only hamper efforts to gain weight. If you don't have to run then walk, if you don't have to walk then stand, if you don't have to stand then sit, if you don't have to sit then lie down.\n4) weight training (if you are at least intermediate level) should not exceed 8 reps, especially on large muscle groups. Please seek the advice of a professional trainer before proceeding with heavy weights if you are not at least an intermediate level weight trainer. \n5) concentrate on multi joint and power movements such as squats and deadlifts for the largest spike in growth hormone during your workouts (again proceed only under supervision)\n6) never workout more than 90 minutes\n7) track your progress - it's the only way you'll find out what works for you\n8) sleep sleep and more sleep - minimum 9-10 hours to maximize growth.\n9) Drink plenty of water\n10) Creatine - probably one of the best ways to gain weight (if used properly) in the short-term.\n\nHere's a list of weight training exercises to help you:\n\nhttp://preventdisease.com/fitness/Strength_Exercises.html

i have always been skinny and wanted to gain weight.  Everyone told me to drink milk but it never worked for me, but it probably depends on the person and their metabolism and stuff.

Ask your doctor to give you a referral to a Dietician.  They will give you a specialized diet plan to help you gain weight the proper way. Make sure you eat 3 good meals a day and 3 good snacks in between.  Junk food will put weight on you but not the kind you need!

----------------->Theres the healthy way.........\n\nHow 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

Jogging and low fat diet.\n\nThe fastest way is via liposuction, but I wouldn't recommend it.\n\nAlways opt for natural solutions first!!

Everybody is suggesting you eat junk food to put on fat.  I say that most of the people making suggestions are wrong.  You don't have to eat more, you have to eat more healthy.  I don't know what your diet consists of so I am taking somewhat of a shot in the dark.  First of all, eat fruits and vegetables.  Preferably raw.  Eat constantly, what I mean by that is, eat every hour or two.  No big meals, say an apple now, carrots in an hour with a bagle.  Combine lean meat (protien) with carbs.  For example, when you sit down for a meal have some chicken and a baked potatoe.  If you are eating lots of fat, chances are you body is just flushing then through.  Avoid caffeen becuase it causes you to loose weight.  Drink water, tea, avoid diet soft drinks...in fact, avoid ALL soft drinks.  That extra sugar is speeding up your metabolism.  Avoid white refined sugar and flour.  Switch to whole grain breads and pasta.  Go to the gym.  Muscle is 3X denser than fat so if you want to gain weight, that is the way to go.  Lift HEAVY!  Enough weight that you fail at about 6 reps.  Don't worry about becoming bulky or muscular.  You are a female and your body does not work that way.  I am so tired of that myth!  Finally you might want to consider hormones.  Birth control pills have caused lots of women to gain weight.  If this not an option there is a product called melatonin.  It's available at most pharmacys and health food stores.  They sell it at Wal-mart.  It's over the counter too.  Take that about 30 minutes before you go to sleep.  It's designed to help regulate your sleep pattern for jet lag and people who work night shifts, but I have seen it cause some people to gain weight.  There are no side effects that I know of except it makes you tired and gain weight.  A book I would look in to is Body for Life By Bill Phillips.  Also you might want to look at another book called The Liver-Cleansing Diet by Sandra Cabot. You want to gain weight in a healthy manner, not with pop, chips, doughnuts and lazyness.  I hope this info helps.

Best way to gain muscle weight is through resistance training (weight lifting).  Get a book or a personal training so you learn the correct techniques/posture.

I think this is an issue that people don't respect, because so many people focus on trying to lose weight, they can't understand why people can't gain weight.\n\nPossible options:\n\nLift weights, wait till you're older and your metabolism slows down.  \n\nI went to a doctor once for something similiar and didn't get much respect for it.  His suggestions were to eat hamburgers and milkshakes.  I would avoid much dramatic changes in your eating habits, like people who want to lose weight start adjusting slowly how much you eat, and lifting weights will help even if it increases your metabolism because once you build muscles you're less likely to lose them than you would fat if you're metabolism is higher as you suggest.  Good luck, just make sure you don't overdue the weight gain to fast so you're organs can adjust as well as when you are older and your metabolism slows you haven't swung yourself into being overweight.
