I wish I had your problem,
if thats your biggest problem than you'll be ok

most likely your either throwing it up,
you have some kind of parasite (like a tape worm)
that is eating everything you eat
or you just have a fast metabolism.

heyjay's right, in the grand scheme of things, you have a wonderful problem. there's things you can do to maximize weight gain; eating foods right before you go to bed is one of them. do you drink milk? if you don't, then start. if you do, it's probably skim. switch to 2%, or better yet, to whole milk. the ultimate switch would be to add chocolate to every glass as well. do you work out? if you do, switch it to the evening time, rather than the morning. working out in the morning increases your metabolism all day. you don't want that for weight gaining. consume more protein. red meats, and the rarer the better. you are going to be living the dream, and I'm so excited for you! best of luck.

most people would love to have your problem. But do you feel constantly light headed naushis , or tired? Then you might have a tape worm which then I suggest going to the doctors immediately and make sure its not a tape worm.

How to GAIN weight?

First, determine from the information below, what your weight should be. Then set yourself goals of a week, 2 weeks, a month, 3 months, 6 months and a year. As you see yourself meeting your goals it becomes easier.


BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measurement of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both men and women between the ages of 18 and 65 years.


BMI Classification

18.5 or less Underweight

What should a minimum calorie intake be?
