What is a healthy way to gain weight?

I want to gain weight but in a healthy way, how?

  • Alot of my family mebers say that I'm fat and I that I need to gain weight. The problbem is that they want me to eat unhealthy food in the process such as chips, sweet bread (pastries), and burgers. I want to gain weight but in the healthy way, that way, when I gain weight, it's not fat weight that will make me unattractive. What kinds of foods and how much of it should I eat a day to gain weight in a healthy way. I want to gain weight but not FAT weight such as by eating junk food all day.

  • Answer:

    Don't increase your intake for fatty / fast food or sweets! Please! What you need to do, is increase your intake for proteins! Get them from a natural source: Boiled eggs, grilled chicken, tuna, nuts, etc.. Build muscle weight! If you really care for your weight, join a gym, because they have the best machines. Keep in mind that one cubic measurement (volume) of muscle weighs 10 times more than one cubic measurement of fat. I hope I've helped. Goodluck! Night Wolf

To gain weight you have to eat more calories than you burn. Start off by estimating how many calories you burn each day using the daily calorie needs calculator http://calorieneedscalculator.com To gain 1 pound per week, eat 500 clories more than you're burning. To gain 2 pounds per week, double it and eat 1,000 calories more than you're burning everyday. To gain muscle, in addition to eating more you also have to stimulate them with enough through resistance training that when they recover, they'll get bigger and stronger. To get an efficient workout you might want to join a gym if you aren't already a member. Guide to Gaining Weight & Muscle - http://straighthealth.com/pages/guides/gainweight.html

Nuts, especially almonds, are very healthy for you but high in fat calories (however it's the "good cholesterol" kind), so you'll gain weight but not in an unhealthy way if you like to snack on nuts.

"Alot of my family mebers say that I'm fat and I that I need to gain weight." How does that even make any sense?
