Eat bananas, they're good for you, but slow your digestion down slightly & so you'll put on wieght :y
-
Like Pete says Banana's for snacks and meals of pasta and chicken, I'm up about 1/2 a stone in 3 weeks, so now I'm only 2 stone underweight ;D
-
Bannana's? Honestly does that work?

Yep. Eat just 500 a day :y

I find drinking a lot of Stella/Malts/Desperado/Leffe etc helps me put on weight ::)
-
would it be worth seeing a nutrionist, its a bit hard living alone and you cant be bothered a lot of the time and i dont want to drift back into junk food. just had 3 months of bad health, dont want to go back there again.

It was actually my 'stop smoking' nurse that got me to see the nutrisionist, she thought I was severly underweight! Now up half a stone and not smoked for 10 days :y

Yep, been there. Next time your down the quacks ask to see the nutrisionist.

This is quite a touchy subject for me guys, :-[
im 33 and i weigh between 8 and a half and 9 stone,i have a 28" waist and all my clothes are small and to be honest some are even xl boys...
and in all honesty it depresses me quite a bit,dont know if its a macho thing but i hate being so bloody thin.....
No matter what i do i never put on any weight...
Dont get me wrong i dont want to be fat but i would love a couple of stone..... :-[
Ive tries all sorts from wife's tales to build up drinks etc,seen Doctor's and nutritionists etc and nothing,and i mean nothing actually puts on a even a single pound........
You can go into any shop and they have an outsize section but have nothing for thin folks,and it can be quite embarrasing at times :-[

I know exactly how you feel, and as for the cold :( I have a low weight problem, worsened as the result of health problems over the last few years, seem to be up and down weight wise, depending on how I am feeling, at my best it is never very good. I get these special 'Milk Shake' drinks through the doctor, via the hospital, they help a bit, sometims. :)

Try Dominos pizza's every night.....that should help ;D
Only reason i mention.....i have vouchers for dominos....25% off (no other offer can apply).....for Swindon/Newbury/Bath......if any one wants some vouchers :-/
-
Wish i shared your problem mate. I'm trying to get rid, nearly a stone since the middle of January & counting. I feel better already, less breathless, more agile etc. & i'll stick at it. No fancy diets just not eating late, taking less sarnies (pack up) to work & chewing gum (spoggies) when mouth hunger kicks in. If you want to put on weight supplements are no healthier than pigging out. I can lose the pounds with a little self discipline, some can't no matter how hard they try, as some will be thin despite what they eat, i was thin til my late 20's/early 30's but a sedentary career & aging metabolism mean i have to work at it now & it's working albeit slowly!
Why do you want to put on weight?

ive been eating a lot of carrot and orange cake. about 4000 calories per cake. and itd blinkin yummy ;D
-
I'm still overweight i'm 5ft7" and was 16 and 1/2 stone, now just above 14 proud of myself I am.
Anyway as said try banna's chicken fish all that stuff works. :y
-
Amigo....
Trust me mate its not nice being so thin,i dont know if its a blokey macho thing or not but its really not nice when you try on clothes that are size small and they are too big....
I bought a pair of school trousers once for work,because we wore grey trousers,and the size i had to get were age 13/14! :-[
Does nothing for your ego...... :-[
I dont want to be fat by any means but i would love to put on a couple of stone....my weight for my height and age should be betweeen 11 and 13 stone,im 8 and a half to 9! so technically im unhealthly under weight.....
I'd be delighted to be 10/11 stone.....
You hear of overweight people being depressed and even suicidal about being so heavy but it works both ways...
-
Jeez!! I had absolutely no idea that so many people suffered with these problems. Overweight, yes, but underweight? I've been thirteen stone or so since I was 18, so guess I'm really lucky.
In Richie's case being underweight is health related, obvously. But if you're underweight but perfectly fit otherwise, why worry?
-
Ach i know mate,ive got a few female pals and my missus who hate me! ;D
Because i do eat,im never done eating....i just dont put any weight on!
I think to be honest its a 'man' thing....
But i can pack a punch! pardon the pun,i got a fair amount of power in my arms etc but its hard to show a 'presence' if you know what i mean when you are built like the side of a fiver!! ;D
Its amazing,even in this day and age,how many people dismiss you because of your size......
Anyway,enough of my moaning!! ;D
Ive got an Omega!! :y :y

Is'nt it funny, how none of our female members have contributed any weight-gain advice ?
-

a lot of itis down to stress of living with a wife or in my case the x wife. waking up to the same face staring at you every day for 20 yrs takes its toll. some lose weight, some cant take the strain and just die, the ones still alive are brainwashed by there wives into thinking they are happy so they have a bigger figure :)

its strange really cause my mum and dad didnt get on for about 20 yrs if there honest about it, never spoke, argued, got worse the more of us left home, i was the last at 32 :-[ :-[. eventually my dad left my mum for another woman, at the age of 70. dirty frigging sod, my mum said he was sex mad ;D ;D ;D
-
Lotsa junk food, eat late at night, just before bed. Lager and dark ale, pretty much snacking, boozing, and midnite munching.
I ideally need to lose 2-3 stone, want some of my belly? :D

any ideas the best way and healthy way to gain weight, im down quite a bit and need to get back up. i'd like to put about 3 stone on by june. are the drink supplements any good ??
first off, you'll struggle to gain 3 stone in "good" weight by June but simple changes in diet/lifestyle will have a noticable change to your physique.
Its not too difficult to put on weight but for this you need to have a calorie excess ie eat more than your body requires (2500 cals) per day.
To make use of this extra calorie intake and prevent it turning to fat it would be ideal to include some exercise (not too much cardio as you'll just burn off the calories) more weight/resistance training 2-3 times a week.
as you train, your body will need more fuel to grow..so more food equals more fuel which in turn helps the body to grow.
drinks can assist in weight gain but be sure to buy a good quality brand as cheaper ones are just full of sugar. a simple protein drink 2-3 times a day will aid the repair and growth of muscle.
I used to weigh 13.5 stone 7 years ago and now weigh 17st 8lb. slow, hard work but worth it if thats what you want. :D
good luck.
