Don’t just start eating more food. I would rather look skinny than fat. In general, weight lifting will add more volume to your body size. It is harder for a woman, but I think weight lifting 2 or three times a week, getting plenty of good protein, and DO NOT SKIP BREAKFAST! will make a difference.

Be sure to get plenty of calcium also. Just eat smartly! Just do not go and eat a bunch of food. I don’t think I have ever seen anybody look good that overeats.

Good luck and I will be praying for you.

if you actually want fat not lean muscle to gain weight then you should eat a lot of simple carbs (i.e. sugar). I don’t think it’s recommendable, tho… Worth talking to your doctor about, probably.

If you haven’t tried eating above your daily caloric requirements, I’d try that first. If you feel like you’ve hit a wall in terms of gaining weight I’ve found it effective to change things up a bit to give my body a bit of a shock (i.e. all of a sudden eat below my daily calorie intake for a couple days, etc..)

I’m sure you can do it!

also, you have to remember that people are jealous. most anyone… dare i say anyone… with an overweight problem would change places with you in a minute. making you feel bad about your body maybe makes them feel better about themselves. i’m not over- or under-weight, but if i had to choose a struggle, i’d much rather be underweight. just make sure you’re eating enough and take a vitamin.

I am not sure what your physical excercise regiem is but lifting weights is an excellent way to put on extra bulk. I saw a program once about a really skinny lady who worked out and added quite a bit of weight. Don’t put on unhealthy weight.
