I've been eating nothing but fatty junk foods with tons of fats, proteins & carbs & avoiding cardio in favor of weight exercises, but ITS NOT WORKING OMGGFG I WILL MURDER MY BATHROOM SCALE.

I didn't gain anything, nope. I fucking lost 3 fucking pounds.

I'm forcing myself to eat until I nearly vomit and nothing works!! My hub gains weight just looking at a carton of full fat yoghurt, why can't I be so lucky!

I asked a doctor, had tests run, he just said "idk it's genetic".

What a waste of copay >😒

-Eat more calories than you burn

-Weed (because munchies)

-Prednisone (if you think weed munchies are crazy, take prednisone. You'll be eating 5-7 square meals a day no problem.)

-Protein Shakes (instead of water, use milk, soy milk if you're lactose intolerant)

-Creatine (just learn how to cycle so you don't mess up your kidneys)

-Midnight Snacks (especially if you're "dirty bulking")

Instead of chewing gum, chew bacon!

I'm 5'3 and weigh 120 lbs. I'll give you some of my double D's and fat.
You say "fat", I say "mighty fine curves". Yeah I'm gay but I can still appreciate a gorgeous woman.
I can't even shop in some stores here cause they make tops really really small as if Filipinos aren't supposed to have big breasts or something. It really sucks.

My sister had a rather similar problem, in that she was skinny with huge mangoes. She would shop from the kids section.

Also, try to improve your digestive system.

I heard some oriental medicine helps with improving appetite and digestion, if you can find a good doc.

If your body cannot digest food well, you can never gain weight.
This. Absorption problems and things like parasites and yeast overload can cause you to not gain. Even silent Celiac disease.

Look into a gut-healing diet (usually grain free, dairy free, and soy free, and moderate specific starches) for 30 days, then reintroduce starting with non gluten grains and white starches, moving into dairy and then the rest.

Seriously OP. I might as well be a teapot so follow my diet. Eat lots of French fries, fried chicken, Pringles (I've a pantryfull of them) and candy bars (preferrably 3 Musketeers)

Do it the Filipino way. Include rice in your diet.

You're welcome.
Um...you have just described my diet lol

and I'm korean, so all of that is pretty much on top of rice as it is πŸ˜„

Seriously, the only time I gain weight is when I do some cardio (don't over do it of course, just a little bit to make you hungry). That's the only time I feel hungry. Lifting weights doesn't make me hungry. If I don't feel hungry it doens't matter how much I eat. I just poop it all out.
Hmm, sounds counterintuitive, but wouldn't hurt to try for a week.

As per usual, all the responses in this thread are fucking moronic.

First off, OP, yes, like your doc said, it's genetics. You can try all you want but chances of you gaining that much weight are slim (no pun intended). You said you're Korean, and a lot of Asians are predisposed to being rail thin as well.

Go see an RD- a registered dietitian. They know more about this shit than an MD will. People need to realize MDs are not all knowing about everything with the body. This is why specialists exist. This is why RDs exist- they know food and health.

I went through the same thing. I'm genetically blessed to being able to eat whatever and not gain weight. When I stopped playing soccer, I actually LOST weight because I lost my muscle mass.

Funnily enough, going on birth control is what made my metabolism "normal." I put on a little weight and have to be a bit more conscious about what I eat, though even that's a bit trivial by a few pounds or so.

But yeah, go to an RD and stop asking the numb nuts on this site who know fuck all about anything about diet and exercise. You're going to seriously fuck yourself up listening to some of this bullshit.

How old are you? Are your parents thin?

Just remember that if you eat a bunch of unhealthy crap, your arteries can still clog, even if you're skinny. Unless you're already an adult--in which case, tell me to shaddup--your metabolism will slow some around 23, and again around 27.

if you didn't gain weight eating junk food you must have fast metabolism, the older you get the slower it gets so enjoy for now, if you wan't to gain weight you should eat around 6-7 times a day and on each meal add up carbs, that would be pasta, rice, buckwheat, oats, also need protein in each meal, meat, eggs, also add up some healthy fats and minerals like nuts or something similar πŸ™‚

Go to "indian sweet" store.

Do what "Dangal" actor Amir Khan did to gain weight.

Image Not Found

Watch that in youtube. He eats a lot of oily indian food like Samosa, etc. Including sweets (sugar liquids).


I have seen that video. It was motivating. (to lose weight)

click to expand



No, he was actually a fit guy.

Then he had to transform to a FAT guy to play an older person role.

Then went back to FIT to play the same guy in his youth.



So, that's why I asked you to view how he went from FIT to FAT to FIT again.

yeah i am aware of that but what i found motivating was how can one go back to fit from fat . Another thing was that with hard work a 51 year old man who is ideally without any efforts looking like the fat version of Amir Khan here can look like the fitter version with dedicated efforts . Not ignoring here though that there could have been lot of substitutes involved .

Fat people who say they don't lose weight even though they say they eat right, are usually bullshitting themselves. And the same thing goes for people who say they don't gain weight even though they eat like pigs. You don't lose weight if you really ate a lot. Usually skinny people claim they ate a burger, 3 apples, a milk shake some cookies and they still wonder why they don't gain weight. You are definately doing something wrong, which means you don't eat as much as you think.

I highly doubt you can look like this without steroids. He looks lean, has a 6 pack yet full round muscless with striations. Considering his age and less producing testosteron levels this is not going to work for natties. ^^

I've been eating nothing but fatty junk foods with tons of fats, proteins & carbs & avoiding cardio in favor of weight exercises, but ITS NOT WORKING OMGGFG I WILL MURDER MY BATHROOM SCALE.

I didn't gain anything, nope. I fucking lost 3 fucking pounds.

I'm forcing myself to eat until I nearly vomit and nothing works!! My hub gains weight just looking at a carton of full fat yoghurt, why can't I be so lucky!

I asked a doctor, had tests run, he just said "idk it's genetic".

the older you get the slower it gets so enjoy for now,
This is the biggest myth out there.

Your metabolism doesn't slow down because you're getting older, it's because you're not as active as you were when you were younger and this also adds to the loss of muscle mass.

Age is irrelevant if you keep active and maintain muscle mass.

I used to be like you and guess what I did? I lifted weights. (I'm a girl by the way). This was way before having a big butt was mainstream for white girls. But I grew up in an urban area where having a big butt was always coveted. I wanted a body like Vida Guerra, not a Victoria Secret model.

So what I did was...I used a calorie calculator. I calculated how many calories I needed to eat to gain 1-2 pounds a week. Then I did heavy weights 3 days a week. Squats, Lunges, Leg Press (etc.) and you can find plenty of information online for weight lifting. And not low weights. At LEAST 15 pounds to start out and add on more as you build strength. You will need a gym membership. Also, you need to consume plenty of carbs and protein after your workouts.

I did this and I went from 128-140 lbs. in about 3 months in solid muscle. I'm 5'6. My hip measurement went from 38-42. My body was bangin (sorry, but it WAS!) it was the best I ever looked.

Voila!

The older you get the less testosterone your body makes, once you go past 30 your lose like 1% test a year, even more if you're not active , the less energy you have and you can't excersise the same as you did, you have to be smarter in training and results don't come as fast, while you're young and testo is boosting thru the fucking roof you can go hardcore as fuck , if you do that when you're for example like 50yrs old or 40s you're going to be fucked, same shit with your metabolism, it's slows down with age, it also depends what food you eat and how active you are, but you can never be as active as you were when you were in peak, so as a result even when you're training metabolism gets slower.

Another thing is with slower metabolism you gain muscle faster than you would with fast, but you also gain fat fast 2, while with fast metabolism it's almost impossible to get fat, you only gain lean muscle if training and eating properly even if you eat loads of foods like carbs who would make slow metab guy get loads of muscle mass along with fat and muscle. πŸ™‚ You can look good in old age, that doesn't mean your metabolism doesn't get slower. Everything depends on your life style and what you eat, carbs, lean meals etc. When you know which type you are you can take advantage of that .

When you get older, you need to stay active to maintain muscle mass and keep your body fat levels low. This will help your BMR stay higher, which means your body burns more calories, and will help you feel like your metabolism is higher.
