Yes, I said slow down. I wouldn't mind gaining a bit if weight. The only thing is that I actually do not like fast food or junk food like honey rolls and things like that. How can I slow down my metabolism but without me gaining too much weight too fast?

(Before anyone asks, yes that is me in the picture, but please don't make any rude comments just answer the question...thank you)

1. Eat high-calorie foods. Avoid choosing low-fat, reduced-fat, or non-fat items. Choose a milk shake instead of nonfat milk, avocados instead of cucumbers. For health reasons, choose mostly vegetable fats (olive and vegetable oils, nuts) rather than animal fats (butter, cream).
2. Eat at least three healthy meals every day. Skipping meals robs the body of needed calories as well as leaving the individual more prone to snacking on unhealthy foods.
3. Eat more food at each meal. Choose bigger portions, add extra filling to sandwiches, and use bigger drinking glasses and bowls.
4. Eat snacks between meals. Carry healthy snacks (granola bars, crackers, and pretzels) to eat on the run.
5. Add sauces and gravies to food. Cheese sauces on cooked vegetables increase the calories and provide flavor.
6. Drink plenty of juices and milk throughout the day. This is a simple way to add calories without feeling full. Adding powered milk or instant breakfast powder to milk contributes extra calories.
7. Exercise to build muscle. Physical activity used in combination with a high-calorie diet keeps the extra calories from turning into body fat. The muscle formed ads weight in the parts of the body where the weight should be.

You're beautiful...

fast a little, that will slow your metabolism. Also, aging slows it. Stop drinking sodas with caffeine or smoking if you have that nasty habit.

Eating at night, right before bed, is the worst thing you can do unless you want to gain a lot of fat.

go to a health food store and buy a weight gainer, which is a calorically dense meal replacement powder, and add a couple of servings to your daily intake, and you'll gain weight for sure. Though this doesn't slow down your metabolism, is accomplishes the same thing.

You can't really slow down your metabolism too effectively unless you just go to bed and stay there. Check your BMI (body mass index) and find out if you really need to gain weight.
