Everyone should speak to a dietician before starting a new diet but generally eating lots of protein and exercising regularly (4-5 times a week) will help.  Because you exercise more, you can eat more.  Eating six moderate sized healthy meals at regular intervals is much more beneficial than eating only three times a day.  Do weight training to build your muscle and muscle tone and cardio to lose fat.  Muscle weighs more than fat.  Good luck!

The first thing you need to know about gaining weight is that it is achieved only by physical conditioning combined with a high-energy (calorie) intake. By consuming a high calorie diet alone, a person will gain fat weight only. Even if the gain improves appearance in the person's own eyes, it is more likely to harm than to benefit health. It is also important for you to take a look at your genetic endowment. For example, if other family members are thin, you probably have inherited a genetic predisposition to thinness. Know that you can alter your physique to a certain extent with diet and weight training, but you should not expect more than what is natural for your body.\n\nMost who are underweight, especially physically active individuals, believe that the best way to gain weight is to eat a high-protein diet. False. Excess protein is just not stored as muscle, so you can forget about converting that extra-double double hamburger into bigger biceps. Since carbohydrates are what fuel your muscles, what you need is primarily extra calories from extra carbohydrates, not extra protein.\n\nRegarding "weight gain shakes," research indicates that protein powder shakes are simply wasted money when it comes to gaining muscle weight. The only reason these may work for some is because the shake provides additional calories. Although it may seem less glamorous, one could just as easily eat another sandwich to get these additional calories.\n\nTo help you with your weight gain goal, here are some healthy weight gain tips:\n\nEat energy-dense foods. Yes, these are the ones typically eliminated in a weight loss program. Pick the highest calorie items from each food group. For example, drink milk shakes instead of nonfat milk, eat peanut butter instead of lean meat, or choose avocados instead of cucumbers. Although a low-fat diet plan is recommended for the general U.S. population, these higher fat foods become essential for an underweight individual who needs to gain weight. An underweight person who is physically active and eating a nutritionally adequate diet can afford a few extra calories from fat. \nEat at least three meals a day. Simply being too busy to eat enough to gain or maintain weight is a common problem for underweight individuals. Therefore, planning meals in advance and making time to eat them needs to become a priority for weight gain to occur. \nEat large portions of food and expect to feel full. Have two sandwiches instead of one, drink milk from a larger glass, and eat cereal from a larger bowl. Know that feeling full during the initial stages of a weight gain meal plan is perfectly normal and will pass over time. \nEat snacks between your meals. In addition to eating more food at each meal, it will be necessary to eat more frequently. These between-meal snacks will likely be especially important in the beginning stages, as they will help to keep your daily caloric intake elevated should you be unable to consume the larger portions during your regularly scheduled meals. \nDrink plenty of juice and milk. Beverages provide an easy way to increase energy intake. Extra calories can even be tastily added to milk by mixing in packets of instant breakfast mixes. \nExercise to build muscle. The person who wants to gain weight should primarily use strength training. As exercise is added to your routine, energy intake must be increased to support that exercise. Otherwise, weight will be lost. Note that the rate at which a person can build muscle tissue also depends on the genetic make-up of that person. However, about 700 to 1,000 calories a day above normal energy needs are enough to support both the exercise and the building of muscle.

The best way to gain weight and still be healthy is to eat more protein, less carbs and lift weights, smaller amounts of weight but more reps.  I also eat about five to six small meals a day to keep my body energized.

Eat a variety of fruits & veggies.  I do daily, and it knocks off the extra pounds.  You have to maintain a healthy balanced diet...if you just eat apples, when you fall off the diet wagon, you'll gain weight very rapidly.\n\nGood luck,  :)

To gain weight in a healthy manner there are a few options:\n\n1.) You can eat more. There are some weight gainer formula shakes which can be taken daily.\n\n2.) You can exercise more.\n\n3.) a combonation of both. \n\nFrom personal experience I recommend #3. I used to weigh only 140 at 5'11" and now weight 185. If your wife is excercising regularly make sure she is not doing too much cardio. Cardio is the ultimate weight reducer. Even one cardio session can have a lasting effect on how energy gets metabolized. Muscle is denser than fat so the goal is to keep and build as much muscle as possible. (without looking like a freak of nature). Couple that with some extra protien foods like eggs and shakes and you have a good combo at hand.

It will take you a bit longer than 20 days to gain good weight like lean body tissue (Muscle). Try setting a reallistic goal like 3 to 6 months. \n\n\nFat on the other hand, just go to Burger Whopper and chow but you will not like the type of weight that you gain from that.

No, you are probably active and have a high metabolism. Try cutting out an activity each day and adding one full meal to your schedule instead. You'll gain weight.

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 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.
