the need to gain weight

Stick with the gym thing. If you build up muscle you will weigh more. Muscle weighs more than fat. Also try to eat foods high in protein.

Well Chesssy, I have put 4 item program here on mylot.com on ID Augustta! You can find out easily and follow that.. Let's see what happens with you! All the best for gaining the weight!

Wish I could offer you some advice here but have the same problem as you as I am underweight as well and have been my whole life . There is a drink you can buy at the Pharmacee , but not sure if you would have it in your area and it is supposed to help you gain weight and is very healthy , it is the same as the weight watchers drinks they have for individuals trying to lose weight but this one is to help you gain weight . It is a shake and comes in Chocolate , Vanilla and Strawberry . Might be something you could check into :) All the best !!

my gosh your problem is you want to gain weight? hehe thats not quite right hehe anyway you just need to eat a lot and think more about food try spending time with people who eat a lot.

we have the same problem, lol. i think you need to rule out illnesses that causes poor weight. my sister had been losing weight for some unknown reason although she is already thin but not underweight. soon, she had been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. actually, i haven't done a check-up with a doctor regarding that because i don't feel the symptoms (oh no, very bad indeed). but, i soon will be seeing a doctor. second, they say sleeping late would slow down your metabolism, but i don't think that is really advisable. cause that's not healthy period. third, try eating more honey. i mean, i am eating at least thrice as much as you do but i'm still underweight, so it's not quite surprising in your case. what i can recommend is: (1) you eat mostly your favorite foods so you increase appetite. (2) drink milk (it really is helpful, i have gone from 100 lbs to 113lbs in a month, but now im back to 100 cos of stress) and (3) vitamins. oh by the way, ask your doctor about some kind of illness that makes you allergic or something with gluten. a substance found in most foods. the thing is, if it enters your body, your immune system will think that it is some kind of foreign substance and your small intestine immediately shuts down. now, this is bad since the small intestine is generally what absorbs the nutrients of what we eat. good luck! (to both of us)

well...all I can tell you is to increase your calorie-diet intake, for instance, if you are taking in 2000 calories a day, you might want to increase it to 2500 calories a day for a while until you reach your goal. Also working out can put some muscle on your body which can make you gain a little weight.
