I am 6 feet 1 inch tall, 27 years old guy and weigh 52 kgs. If I remove my shirt, you can count my ribs. I want to gain atleast 10 - 20 kgs. What are my options? A few things to note - - I am a vegetarian. But I do eat eggs occassionally. - I do not like exercising nor swimming. I am too lazy for that. - My Work Lifestyle: I work on my computer for 8 hours per day - so my work does not involve too much exercising either. I drive to work from home. The only exercise I get is climbing up and down the stairs! - My Health: I seem to be fairly healthy. I haven't been ill for years - no fever, no backaches, no headaches etc. I seem to have lots of stamina. I don't get tried trekking up hills (while others huff and puff). But others can carry heavier loads on their backs. - I rarely sweat. I probably drink one glass of water a day. - Chocolates / ice-creams/ junk food have been blamed for obesity. Does that mean I can gain weight by stuffing myself with these? - With your recommended diet/suggestions, how long would it take for me to gain 10 - 20 kgs? Thanks - skinnydude |

your lack of excersize is good, cause all you want is fat right? if you want mussle, you need to eat lots of protein rich foods, carbohydrates, and a good amoutn of good fats... 40%,40%,20%, respectively. if you want fat.. then just eat anything randomly and dont excersize and youll gain weight... but the most important part is... not how MUCH you eat but how often. thats right... people with slow metabolism eat a lot... you need to eat 5 small meals a day not 3 or 2 like ur used to... but 5, spread out evenly at 7am, at 9 am, at 12noon, at 3, and at 6.... |

weight gain is all about having a greater energy intake than what you expend. just eat as more that you already are eating. Being a vegetarian wont help you with trying to gain weight, but you could snack on lots of peanuts (50% fat. Although i wouldnt recommend putting on lots of fat, since it isnt going to do you good. You also need to up your fluid intake, 1 glass is no where near enough |

It sems amazing that you're skinny and don't do excercise!!I suppose the reason for not getting tired is no excess fat. Chips, burgers and nuts are known to have a lot of fat in them, try them! Also try to drink more fluid.3/4 of are bodys are made up of water! Hope my advice helps!!! Ironclaw |

i wouldn't recommend you putting on solely fat. what i'd suggest is taking protein shakes more than the recommended intake. I'm a vegetarian as well and so I'm aware of the protein deficiency....eggs are not enough to build up muscle and healthy vegetarians end up with a relatively low calorific intake... try buying powdered protein (used extensively by body builders!). It is usually added to milk so it can be taken with breakfast! try to incorporate as much protein as possible..that's the key...chocolates and ice cream will help for sure to put on weight! though if u still want to keep clean arteries snack on nuts. almonds, pistaccios, etc! these will boost your memory rather than cause the drop in blood sugar level which chocs and other junk food may cause making you feel more lethargic! |
