10 Best Weight Gaining Foods ...

When I needed to gain weight, I found it really hard to find recipes that didn’t include low fat foods or require huge amounts to be eaten! Here are my top ten foods for weight gain!

1 Paella ...

Paella is a gorgeous recipe from Spain, containing around 500 calories per serving.

2 Omelette ...

Omelette ... A typical mushroom omelette contains 560 calories. Omelette recipes differ, but they are easy and fast to prepare, and you can add whatever you want!

3 Macaroni Cheese ...

Make sure that you use high fat cheese and pasta, and your serving will top 450 calories! Check out these recipes!

4 Candied Ginger and Rosemary Squares ...

Candied Ginger and Rosemary Squares ... These are delicious, buttery squares, which contain 1822 calories per serving.

5 Quick Summer Bean Salad ...

Summer Bean Salad is one of the nicest salads ever, containing 602 calories per serving. Make a big portion, and keep it for lunches and warm nights.

6 Butter ...

Butter ... 100g of butter contains a massive 750 calories, and butterkist popcorn contains 420 calories per 100g!

7 Bakewell Tarts ...

A single bakewell tart contains 400 calories, learn how to make one here!

8 Chicken Broth ...

Chicken Broth ... One of my favourites, this is definitely worth cooking and storing if you can. This is broth and dumplings, and is certainly calorie heavy!

9 Mashed Potato ...

Calorie heavy already, at 480 calories per cup, but loaded with cheese and butter this is one of the heaviest foods, and also the easiest to make!

10 Homemade Pie ...

Whether its cottage pie or fish pie, serve a large portion with mash and vegetables for a calorie heavy meal.

These are my top ten calorie heavy foods, which I believe can easily be incorporated into a diet. If you can think of others, please let me know!

vivy is there a pill that contain all these calories because eating much is a big problem for some.
- Denise Hi Vivy. You could try calorie-dense smoothies so you're also drinking your calories. You could try multivitamins because some people say that it increases their appetite. Another thing you should consider is gaining muscle mass through weight training. And don't worry... Unless you're doping up on testosterone. then you won't become body builder bulky. Good luck! Thanks for stopping by.
Avhie Hi, Thanks for sharing this one. I'm already 18yrs.old but then my weight is only 38kg.which is really not suitable for my age. What can I do? Please help me. thanks..

A Hi im 16 years old i weigh 49 Kilos and have been trying to gain wait since i was 14 , im desperate to gain weight fast as i have been trying for so long now PLEASE HELP ME!
Ray Hi there. I'm a 48 year old male and can't maintain enough weight. I just got weighted and I am at 106lbs. I'm 5'4" tall. I will try these tips, but if anyone has any other tips, I'd appreciate it.
Anonymous Dear Ruthann, I've been your route and couldn't maintain the weight but I found the less I worried about it, the better I did. After chemo, you'll gradually get your appetite back and the weight. If you are like me I'm underweight to begin with so it's an uphill battle, but we can do it!!! Skinny Minnie Finally a site that's not about loosing but gaining weight. I just found it and love it already.
- Denise Hi Skinny Minnie. Thank you for your kind words. We do try to keep things balanced here. I hope that you get to your goal weight. Good luck. Keep visiting All Women Stalk!
Julia I'm 13 and I'm only 85 pounds /: I eat most of those foods and I still can't get to 100 pounds. I work out by swimming, Wii boxing, and Wii tennis. It still doesn't work. Help?
- Stephanie you 2 r still kids i was exactly where u were at 12 and 13 im 18 now 96 if u sincerely want to gainwhen you work out do something thats going to tire you out quickly then eat high protien things like shakes smoothies and you will slowly gain the weight but dont actually worry about ityou are still growing and your hormones and metabolism are changing and going crazy and its either going to be easy to gain or not depending what your body is going through while your body is maturing i was at 110 when i was working but I get sick easily and lose it my typical weight is 102 it will happen but as long as your body is growing it might not happen

rekha i am 26 years old.and i weigh only 31 kg.how can i gain weight??
- akhil Please, Concentrate on increasing your calorie intake than you are using. E.g you are using 2000cal per day than eat 2500-2700cal per day that will store in ur body. And Help u increase ur weight. Don't relay on fat only try protein & carbohydrates more than fat. Like 60% Carbs, 40% Protein and 20% Fat. Let me know if it helps you.
jhansi Hi ... Iwant tips to become fat..My age is 24years and my weight is 34kg...so i want tips to become fat..i want to gain weight in 1month...
Shannon So excited for this post and the 20 High calorie foods post. 6 months ago I lost 15 lbs and am now 10 lbs underweight (lowest ove been since 7th grade). Have not been able to regain the weight and I look like a skeleton. No one I know has had this problem so I'm getting a lot of uneducated advice. And when I typed it in before, I could only find weight gain for body building. Thank you thank you! Can't wait to try some stuff out!
Carole Hey girls! My nutritional requirements are 2500 calories a day - to maintain my weight. Do you know how hard it is to eat 2500 calories a day when you don't eat fast food, packaged food, or drink pop or alcohol? I have the body of a 17 year old, except I'm 54. I want to gain some weight without giving myself a heart attack! I'll be trying some of your suggestions.
Alexa im so underweight, only 103 lb, plus im sick of the skinny life, and i want to fill in more, so im going to fallow all of theses foods and eat them as often as possible, maybe next time im on my scale ill b sumwat over 103 lb. Coz i wanna b a fat 13 yearold,idk y, i just do. but im already starting to grow a bit,my stum'ics sticking out by its self! :)

- Sheila Hey Jennifer, We're glad you liked the post. We need more eye-openers like this don't you think. Good luck with the weight gain by the way :)
James This is really helpful for me as I am trying to bulk up for my contact sports eg rugby. Girls, I understand losing weight is the most important thing for you, but remember, for alot of guys, gaining weight is the most important thing
- Sheila James, Well good luck on all the bulking up :)
Ruthann I need to gain weight before chemotherapy and to try to keep weight on during and after my treatment. Thanks for all these good ideas. Ruthann
- Olga to Ruthann: Try to eat organic now as much as possible - the meat, the butter, the oil, eggs, fish - everything. It's the healthiest way to put on some weight, sweetie. Good luck to you and please stay strong!
Samantha thanks now i know which foods to avoid as i am on weight loosing spree. Samantha

- Olga So glad you liked the post, Liz! :) You won't believe how many people want to put on some weight! So we'll definitely keep those posts coming :) Thank you for reading!
GIGI I'm guessing this list is for unhealthy weight gain then?
- Olga to GIGI: it's very hard to gain weight without fats, and unfortunately most of the foods that contain fat contain saturated and trans fat as well ... That's what gives the products a longer shelf life...
