it's so obvious the OP started this thread to brag about losing weight just to make people that gain weight feel bad about themselves. How do I know that was the OP's intention? Because unless she's brain damaged, she knows exactly how to gain weight, any normal person knows. Therefore, no need to start a thread unless it has another meaning (other than advice to gain weight).

My husband has been trying to gain weight with no luck but when I really log mentally what he eats each day it's not much. He just doesn't get that hunger that most people get.

I have no advice for you since it's never been a problem for me. If I HAD to gain weight I'd just eat whatever the heck I wanted, ice cream, french fries, steak, REAL Coke (as opposed to diet or coke zero), have desert at every meal and most importantly try not to move much...just cop a squat and eat and sleep. LOL

a lot of peaple lose its weight because of the stress of the waitting of ther approval

so how to gain the weight ???????????, :wacko::wacko:

are you a man or a woman?

figure out what your BMI is, figure out what your BMR is. Then add whatever extra stuff you do during the day onto your BMR (ie if you work heavy lifting or something add approximate cals you burn, or if you exercise etc). then take that total number and make sure you eat MORE than that in your food, check the labels. Load up on protein, healthy fats and healthy grains fruits and veggies. If you consumed 3500 extra calories over the course of a week (on top of yoru BMR plus whatever else you are burning calorie wise) then you will gain a pound. Its really not a secret its mostly math, doing the same in reverse for losing weight. Of course metabolism, thyroid issues can make it harder. But for normal healthy people this should work. Dont load up on chocolate and ####### food because then you may be skinny on the outside but you will be fat and unhealthy on the inside.

OK so based on what you said your height and weight were earlier and without knowing how old you are, your BMR (basal metabolic rate) is approx 1400. That means that just by doing nothing and being you - you are burning 1400 calories a day by not doing anything. Now I am going to go out on a limb with what I know from moroccan women and I bet that you do more than nothing as a housewife and you are burning lots of calories cleaning, couscous making, etc. So lets just say you burn another 1000 calories on top of that with all of your wifely duties. That means that you need to eat 2400 calories a day just to maintain your current weight. So if you add an additional 500 calories on top of that you will gain a lb a week. Go to a site like thedailyplate.com and try tracking the food you eat in a day and see if you are getting close to 2900 calories. Then add more cheese, bread, lean meat, etc until you hit 2900 calories. They do sell weight gain shakes at GNC (vitamin store) if you live here in the states.

you dont know its a she! maybe its a skinny moroccan guy! dont be bitter, you will lose the baby weight! hehehe j/k :lol:

yes you do, I was extremely annoyed by skinny people when I was pregnant.

Not necessarily.

Plenty of people have problems keeping the weight on. My ex-wife really struggled keeping the weight on after the birth of our first child. She would eat like a horse, and it just wouldn't stick. It got to the point where she was really starting to get under-weight, and then all of a sudden her metabolism finally kicked back in (or out I guess) and she started being able to put weight on again. Wish I had that problem sometimes, but it IS a real problem. So be kind. :)

Eat more protein!

Was vegan for so long - had the hardest time keeping weight on, wound up in the hospital over it - protein powders, shakes and reintroducing some meat into my diet has put me on the otherside of it now! always wanting to lose 5 lbs! LOL!
