I’m almost 5’ and I weigh 73 pounds. I need to gain weight too and I’ve been searching for ways to gain fast weight. I’ve heard exercising helps

Answer #2

Eat healthy. Make sure that you don’t take in too many calories with junk food. Stay active to promote proper growth. Fruits and vegetables.

But remember that your metabolism may be keeping you from gaining. When I was 16 I was 6’3” and 148 lbs. (10.5 stone), and was eating large amounts of food. I didn’t pick up any weight at all until I was 19.

Hope this helps. Good Luck !!
