Answer 5

Unless you have an eating disorder, i'd recommend against trying to bulk up with food.  Try bulking up with exercise.  I know, it's counter intuitive, but if you work hard, you can gain weight.

I used to be that way, but now it's a struggle to keep my weight lower.  The change happened around 45.

Answer 6

It's your body and the way it processes food, your metabolism rate is high and there is really nothing you can do about it. You may want to see your Dr. and make sure it's not a thyroid condition, but chances are it's not... my son had the same problem in his youth and the thing that helped him the most was to drink Carnation instant breakfast and high protein shakes throughout the day, about four a day, two of the breakfast one's and two of the protein, Ensure was the other drink he consumed, and it actually helped build muscle definition and he gained weight from muscle mass alone. Best of luck

Answer 7

I think it would help you to think of gaining weight as a long-term goal.  Probably the best way to gain weight for a man is to put on muscle mass.  To do this you need to go to the gym and do anaerobic workouts every other day.  In addition you should monitor your daily kcal consumption and estimated loss.  You should be consuming more kcal's than your are burning per day.  If it truly is your goal to gain weight, be patient, work hard, and keep track of your progress.
