-- Posted by Lihiro at 5:36 pm on Dec. 26, 2008 So sure, many weight topics going around tonight about loss, but I keep slipping into the underweight section according to body mass index, it's been like that for months. So, how do I gain weight? I've sat and done nothing today but eat chocolates all day and you know what? I woke up 9 stone 13lbs (139lbs), 1 pound off my target of 10 stone (140lbs), it is now approaching 2am and I'm 9 stone 11lbs (137lbs). So what the hell? It's always been like this but tips'll be appreciated. =/ -- Posted by smalltowngirl9 at 5:37 pm on Dec. 26, 2008 well seeing as you're a guy, you need to eat a ton of protein & workout, build up your muscle. -- Posted by Bearsy at 5:37 pm on Dec. 26, 2008 -- Posted by EnticingMind at 5:38 pm on Dec. 26, 2008 Some people just can't put on the weight.

Otherwise it just goes in your mouth and straight out your bottom! First of all find out how much weight you need to gain - yes you see in magazines, online, in newspapers from friends that you need to be a certain weight and you need to do this certain method but that necessarily doesn't apply to you! The key is to find out exactly how much you need to eat to gain weight and then compare this to your current intake.  It could be you are already eating enough but that other factors are slowing down your weight gain. -- Posted by Editor in Chief at 6:00 pm on Dec. 26, 2008 For one, I think you're perfectly cute as is and don't need to worry about gaining weight. Having said that, if it's really what you want to do - you have to remember to eat, doofus! -- Posted by Lihiro at 6:25 pm on Dec. 26, 2008 Quote: from jschwa1986 at 6:00 pm on Dec. 26, 2008 For one, I think you're perfectly cute as is and don't need to worry about gaining weight.
