I need to gain weight. What to eat?

hello
I am very skinny. Only 50kgs with height 5-10. I was better but lost 5kgs due to illness. Can you plz tell me what to eat to gain weight and not much fat? Well fat does not deposit on my body and I tend to put on weight very slowly. I have a hard time putting on weight.

I have decided to do some weight training with light weight but what are the main exercises to do? Also what should I eat?

I eat eggs and love them. Chicken, mutton is alright but no other type of meat. Also being an Indian, plz don't tell me about pasta and pizza and burgers. Try to say whats availabe everywhere.

Also good protien shakes are hard to find. The highest protien content I got is 65% whey protien.

Plz suggest a diet and exercise plan. I need to gain some weight. I don't wanna start college with this skinny look.

Thanks and all help is appreciated. Thanks. Plz try to post here rather that directing to another link.

 

I think U should go to Fitness Club( body Building) & Eat High protein food
This way can help u gain weight..

 

Same condition here

 

All (we) geeks are skinny.
True geek does not have time to eat.

 

eat a big meal just before you go to sleep at night and always keep a bowl of something (popcorn, chocholate, biscuits, anything really that will keep you eating) next to you while you're sitting in front of your computer. You could also eat saturated fat, drink beer (two beers have about 500 calories) and eat a lot of stuff with sugar

 

Relax, buddy.
After age 25 your body ability to metabolize fat will decrease. You will have more fat and fat after that age.
But if you are more than 30 years old now and still that skinny, I suggest you go to the nutrition expert.

 

i seriously doubt anyone would like to gain weight by adding fat

eat a lot, lift a lot and sleep alot, you will be fine. You don't even need hi protein stuff

However, some people are born to be skinny, no matter how hard they try, they will just stay skinny and weak

 

lol....nice thread...
i am 6'2" with about 95 kgs of weight...
take lots of fats and go for exercice and you will develop a good build in a few weeks

cheers!

 

eat a lot of ice cream

 

Go for Whey protein, Its good!!! definetly will increase your body mass....

 

Eat more protein foods and some carbohydrates..

 

eat lots of foods rich in protein, cheese and junk foods

 

That's perfect advice!

Advice from someone who is fat: Eat, Sleep, Eat!

 

Protein based meals are best, chicken, tuna, whey protein etc

 

Protiens and carbs just before you go to sleep

 

Hellllllloooooooooooo
I need to gain muscle not fat. I don't wanna pot belllllyyy. I wanna gain lean muscle guys. Plz give useful advice. Thanks those who gave useful input.

 

Hey we share same problem

Btw Thanks everyone for some wonderful advices

 

no, eating Carbs before sleep will decrease the amount of growth hormone produce by your body during sleep

best food to eat before bed - cottage cheese

 

ALL I know is 6 meals a day is very good and a protien shake after workout.

 

Start eating more often. Every 2-3hrs.

Whey protein is only designed for extreme cases where you need fast digesting protein, like after a workout. It is definitely not a meal replacement.

Eat every 2-3hrs for a week. If you don't gain weight. Eat more at each of those meals. If you still don't gain weight after a week, start incorporating the extra virgin olive oil mega calorie drink. lol

2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
2 scoops of peanut butter
2 cups of milk(2%)
1 cup of oats
1 teespoon of honey
1 scoop of whey.

Mix it all together and you got yourself a 900 calorie drink. But I doubt it will come to that point.
