Answer #1

Overeating only puts on fat weight. If you want to gain weight and still look healthy - you have to increase your calories and eat certain things - but you still do not over eat.

-Carbs -Protein -Eat Three Meals a Day -Eat Three Snacks a Day -Skim and 1 percent Milk -100 percent Fruit Juice -Each meal should include - A Starch (bread, pasta, rice, potato, cereal), Fruits and Veggies, and a protien (fish, chicken, red meat, tofu, peanut butter, legumes, egg, cheese). -Excersize - you are building muscle instead of fat -Choose calorie dense foods - Potato’s, Corn, Peas, Bananas, Cranberry Juice, Granola, etc.

Answer #2

I’m not sure eating yourself into oblivion will help anything. Im trying to gain a little weight but eating doesnt seem to be doing me any goo. Im not to skinny or anything but I still want to gain weight, so I eat like a cow. Yeah, its not working so follow ichibanarky’s advice.

Answer #3

You put weight on when you don’t use up all the calories you consume. It’s like a scale.

Answer #4

Overeating will help you gain weight - in the form of fat.

You have to excercise and build muscle mass or you’ll end up looking like a blimp, not to mention becoming very unhealthy.
