A quick way to GAIN weight?

I've tried protein shakes and I exercise.. I've gained muscle but lost the little fat that I have. I have a very fast metabolism so losing a little weight makes a considerable difference to my frame.. any suggestions on how to gain at least 10-15 lbs?

    Hi sweetie, I would try fast foods once in a while, and lots of pasta and cheese. I eat a lot of refried beans and can gain weight quick with that. Otherwise, you're perfect, I know!!

    Wow, you sound like me when I was 15. I could never get my weight to go past 106 pounds. (And that was with the monthly bloat). My waist was 24" and I was very slender. I was physically active every day, just having fun, swimming, sledding in winter, you name it, if it was an outdoor sport, my friends and I probably did it. I had to be called in to eat meals. I did not like meat either and would only eat a few bites of it. Later on I became a vegetarian - a lacto-ovo vegetarian which meant I ate dairy products, too. You probably would benefit by seeing a nutritionist. I know that I was a horrible eater and did not eat all the foods that I should have. When I was studying health to be a healthy vegetarian, I found that as a teen, I was eating too many foods with sugar or starch and not enough fresh vegetables and fruits. Once I took charge of my health, I felt a lot better and did not have colds like I usually got in spring time. So see a nutritionist first.

    Stay out of fast / junk food..You want to gain healthy weight and more muscle mass..not flab ! Start your gym right away...start by taking weights and a little bit of cardio. You would find your appetite increasing and the food you take in would start getting absorbed into the body more. But remember to eat healthy stuffs.. remember to include more protein , more carbs , veggies , fruits in your diet...
