7. Butter/Margarine
Salted butter has 36 calories for each 5-gram serving. The calories should pile up, depending on the thickness of the butter or margarine that you’ll spread on the bread.
Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients
in other foods.

9. Whole Wheat Bread
You can eat healthy and pack on pounds at the same time by eating whole wheat bread instead of the overly processed white bread. One slice of the brown variant contains 69 calories.

[...] I mean, I do miss Julia. How long has it been since her megawatt smile has grazed the big screen? But please, if you’re a million-dollar earning celebrity and you know that the paparazzi is out to get pictures of you – would you still wear a body-baring bikini if you know that you have all that extra poundage on your belly? [...]

[...] Moreover, if the deadly disease diabetes runs in your family, a vegan diet can also help increase your insulin sensitivity, allowing nutrients to more rapidly enter the cells of the body to be converted to heat rather than to fat. [...]
I am glad there is a site up here as i would like to gain weight and the fatty foods help its important for some people to gain weight just as much as it is for a woman to loose weight, gaining weight for a man is important.
To Lee- That’s because you’re a Fat Ass!
I’m glad to here all the things that could help me, Im 20 yrs old and I have always been skinny. I hate being a size 2-3. people don’t understand it but I’m not expecting them too, I would be happy to have a shape to my body maybe a size 7 or 9 im just sick of feeling bony. Being too thin can make a person feel unconfident and thats been my story for a very long time.
Thanks Again!
[...] Food and drink products are all out to get you. They scream ‘Buy me! Buy me!’. It could be ‘fat free’ but it could still have a lot of calories. You need to analyse the nutrition label on the cover. Find out what’s good for you and what isn’t. Knowing in advance can help you stay away from products that are calorie-enriched. [...]
Thanks alot for the article. I am a 25yr old mother of three, and believe it or not- I have been trying to gain weight for a long time. The only time I ever gain weight is when I’m pregnant, and afterwards I’m back to my original size in no time. I’m 5′3″ and I currently weigh 120lbs. Hopefully by following this article’s suggestions, I can gain atleast 20-25lbs before summer comes again. Everyone likes a little meat on their bones!! I have been skinny as a rail all of my life because of my fast metabolism, I desperately want to be a little heavier.
I value the information contained in this blog..thank you to everyone who contributed. I will certainly do like wise..in order to gain that weight…its not nice to stay thin for all your life.
