ekoson95: Hello Nairalanders, Please I want u guyz to help me on this issue.
It frustrates me when I see myself in the mirror how skinny i am, my wrists are slender and tiny. In fact, in one word "Bonny". People jokingly make fun of me and it really pisses me off.
I am 18 years old, about 170 cm (5.6" tall, and 55kg weight.

I want to gain more weight, please, what do i do?

Uchiha Madara: Protein, Protein, Protein.

You can blend some bananas, with whole milk, and some raw eggs (yuck right?)

If you are a guy, then gaining weight should be no problem at all, as long as you can actually afford food.

Hit the gym, please not for marathon sprints, but for weight building. As soon as you finish working out, you should reach for protein within a couple of minutes to help your torn muscles rebuild to become stronger.

Just remember to put Protein first, you obviously do need a balanced diet, but think big like a Texan in terms of protein, not in like a typical Nigerian with a mountain of rice on the plate, and one maggi cube sized piece of meat on top.

Nostradamus: Please everyone,how do i open a thread??

deols: Are you male or female?


All you need do is eat.

pragmatist_m: @ op, i was in your shoes till my mid 30s. i was 55kg till 35/36 years of age.but i got a simple two step solution about 3 years ago.

Step1: get fresh bitter leaf. squeeze the juice up to ⅔ glass cup and drink before going to bed for 5-7 days.

Step2: The following week buy vitamin E capsule (any quality type or any one with aloe vera). Take one capsule every morning. Finish all the capsules or take for 2-3 weeks. Then eat well (of course, the capsule will increase your appetite) and drink a lot of water.

After those two steps, continue to eat well, of course balanced diet with much fruits. in 2-3 months, come and tell me the results. If you can do it, it works. As im typing now, im 72 kg. so i know it works.

CocoLoca: Metabolism is key.. Maybe you should alter it with drugs (slow it down), idk

This is pure thrash! U r a disgrace to Medical School. That's essentially if u r one. It's better to keep quiet than open ur mouth to display how f00lish u are.
BMI is calculated by dividing your weight in kg by the square of your height in m.
Not square root as indicated.
And if u wanna use a height, u have to use realistic ones. It's not possible for anyone to b 5.6m tall. Thats like 560cm. What planet are u from?
From my calculation of d op's BMI, it's 55/(1.7*1.7) = 19.03,
@op, go siddon. U r definitely within a healthy weight range. Anybody that advises you to gain weight must b your enemy.
