This is a problem which most of the people are facing , and everyone they ask , suggest them to eat properly, but the problem lies here itself, either the skinny person cannot eat much, or he take a good diet but still does't gain weight (mostly). How can the latter one can be overcome ie. when person eats properly all kinds of food but still does't gain weight.

Yes you're right. I am experiencing that problem today. My friends told me that I need to eat more. I changed the amounts of food that i eat. Before, I was eating only a cup of rice and a viand for every meal, after they told me so, I began doubling that amounts of each. Two (2) cups of rice plus viand (meat and veggies) and soup with a slice of my favorite bread. But still, I have this consistent 48 kilogram weight. It's so awkward. I'm 5'7 in height and having such kind of a thin body really makes me feel uncomfortable.T_T

Eat a lot carbohydrate rich food, protein rich food, fatty food. Eat every 2 hours if you like... that will help you gain weight too. Sleep after you eat, the food that you had intake will be stored in your body while you sleep. Drinking colas, coke, pepsi and other softdrinks made me gain weight too before. But now I am not really fat, I am into diet coz i dont wanna be fat.

You may have a high metabolism and need to eat more than the average person would. Sometimes people have to eat 4000 calories a day to gain weight. You can load up on carbohydrates such as breads, rice and pastas but you may find this uncomfortable. There are liquid meal replacements such as Ensure which would help you to gain weight and are much easier to ingest than food. Most importantly, you should really consider talking to a doctor in case there is an underlying problem that needs to be treated, such as a thyroid condition. Good luck!
