Best ways to gain weight fast?

[Anonymous]

I'm really underweight and I need to gain weight fast. I've been trying for months and months and have only gained one pound. Eating a lot isn't doing anything. My metabolism is overactive. What else can I do? I wonder if I should work out to build muscle but I really don't want to burn any more calories than I do just sitting and doing nothing. I don't want to be fat but I want to be closer to a normal weight. I want 10-15 pounds. Please help, tips?

By the way I eat a lot of carbs and protein. Peanut butter, meat, beans. Cheese. It isn't working.

don't eat a lot of junk food, that will only make it worse. try eating more carbs and slowly eating more and more. another trick? eat right before bed (unless it gives u nightmares) while you are asleep, your body doesn't burn as many calories

If you are naturally thin and do not have health problems, I don't think there is any reason to gain weight.

I am, I've always been like this. I'm sick of people harassing me though. Whenever I go to the grocery store people make comments. I'm 5'8" and I weigh 97 pounds. I'm sick of people calling me a skeleton and pointing at me, telling me I need to eat something. I eat like a cow. People are so stupid. :( I don't know what to do anymore

If you are in the US or any westernized country, you are surrounded by fat people who have no sense of normalcy anymore. More than 75% of America is fat.. You being thin is an outlier to that.

Don't worry about what they have to say about you. Be witty and say something back if it is bothering you.

I am in the US and everyone here is so fat. I have a lot of obese people telling me how gross I look. Thank you so much. Maybe that's the biggest problem. I don't understand why I'm healthy and they're mouth-breathing and eating their McDonald's telling me how gross and worthless I am. It makes me feel really bad. My whole family is thin. Maybe I should move to a different country and people will think I'm normal. My friend went to Europe and she said that so many people there were just as small as I am!

I heard sperm helps women get fat.. the only problem is you have to eat it from down there.

[Asker]

Lmao. At this point I would.

But , jokes aside, I'll tell you one thing. Naturally thin people are too thin because their metabolism is too good.. If you eat double the amount of food you eat in a regular day then also you won't get fat because your stomach gets enough free time to digest it all.
To get fat , you don't necessarily have to eat more, you just have to eat more frequently, So your stomach doesn't get enough time to burn all of it and it gets converted to fat. Try eating something or the other every 3 hours.
And eat healthy, not some fried junk.
PS: I was super skinny when 14. This is how I got rid of that.

Oh thanks! That makes sense. I'll try that. I keep trying to eat bigger meals but maybe if I eat every hour or two instead that will help. Yeah my metabolism is crazy fast.

Eat lots bannas, nuts. Its healthy and should work hopefully

[Asker]

Ty! I'll keep trying it. Maybe I need more bananas than I'm eating

[Opinion Owner]

I used to be very skinny a couple years ago and bannas helped a lot, also the more muscles you have the more it burns fat so maybe avoid that for now, just eat and eat but healthy woth little exercise, you still don't gain weight then go see a doctor maybe there are ways to slow down your metabolism. :)
