FIRST ! calm down. Second, just eat something that you can eat, that has a lot of calories. Don't worry, im flipping skinny too :]. Well, im a girl, but whatever. Just eat something you can fit into your stomach, and don't stuff yourself, eat something with A lot of calories, A lot.

Weight Gain

1) Count how many calories you eat in a normal day. Don't change anything, just eat like you normally would and count how many calories you consumed. This is an extremely important step, so try to be as exact as possible. Also, weigh yourself. 2) Starting the day after you counted calories, eat 500 calories MORE then you normally do. So, lets pretend that the day you counted calories you counted 2000. For the rest of the week, you would now eat 2500 calories a day. Instead of eating 3 big meals a day or eating all day all the time, spread those calories out over 5-6 smaller meals. Eat one meal every 2 and a half to 3 hours. To get big, you have to eat big! Remember that. 3) Weightlifting! Get in the gym and lift! This is another important step to how to gain weight, so make sure you are doing it correctly. For more information on weightlifting workout routines and splits, read the workout routines and splits section. 4) At the end of that week, weigh yourself. You'll notice your gaining just after one week! Now, don't expect to see a 10lb increase. Gaining anymore then 1 or 2 pounds a week is unhealthy and means your putting on way to much fat. So look for 1 or 2 pound gains at the end of the week. Don't sound like much? You can be gaining 5-8 pounds a month! 5) Heres an important one. At some point, you will stop seeing weight gain. At this point, you will have to eat even more. So, when you stop gaining for at least 2 weeks, it means it is time to start eating an extra 250 calories a day. Every time you see you haven't gained weight for at least 2 weeks, add an extra 250 calories. More tips for how to gain weight (extremely important!) - Stay away from fat! Eventhough weight gain is your goal, you don't want to be gaining fat. Get rid of the chips and candy. No more fast food, nothing fried. Stick to high protein low fat foods like tuna fish (and other seafood), chicken breast, turkey, lean meats, fruits and vegetables etc. (For more information, read the diet and nutrition section. - WATER! Drink water! Drink around a half gallon a day, more if you can. Yes thats alot of water, but its that water that will give you the energy you need to gain that weight! - Sleep! YES! Sleep! The easiest, yet most over looked step. Get atleast 8 hours of sleep a night. Your gonna need it! Now the concern some people have about how to gain weight, is how to do it without putting on extra fat. Let me tell you how, YOU CAN'T! Unless you are using steroids, it is basically impossible to gain weight without putting on a little bit of extra fat. But hey, you want to see some weight gain right? Well then who cares about the little bit of extra fat you might put on while gaining. You will be able to burn that off later on, right now gaining is your main concern, so that is all you need to worry about.

Ham, low-fat milk, meat, bird, fish. Protien shake + meal after exercise. Banana + difficult carbs before exercise. I just received 15 pounds. In no way let your belly go hungry. That is the hardest phase. In the event you wanna obtain muscle then you are going to have got to start doing a little compound wieght exercises and less cardio. The extra cardio you do the more you'll be able to have got to eat to make up for it. I absolutely stopped cardio for a while to gain this weight. Took me 2-three months.

wow if you were a girl people would be so jealous of you. and the guys would be like all over you. i mean, im 5'5" and 14 and EVEN I weigh 10 pounds more than you. and people like hate me (jealous) so imagine what it would be like if you were a girl.
yeah you have this insanely high metabolism just like me.
when you eat, are you eating full carbs and protein? or are you just eating empty carbs...(chips, crackers, JUNK FOOD)
yeah if you load up on protein that will add muscle mass which weighs more. and work out. that will add muscle too. basiclaly you just want to add mucscle because you dont want to add weight in fat, (then youll just get fat) you just want to get buffer or w/e. so yeah i guess just work out, lift weights, and eat protein. and drink those protein shakes (which are so fu**ing disgusting but you have to do what you have to do)

I would have said weight gainer..but try what a stick-figure friend of mine did as well as my emaciated grandmother.

Keep Drinking ENSURE ..its for old ppl but its loaded with calorie and vitamins..

but if you want to try a weight gainer try this one:

Optimum Nutrition Serious Mass (look it up on the internet)
