Op if you want to lose weight take vegetable soup sparingly. Most people use vegetable to lose weight because it makes people feel full faster and longer. No one denies its nutritional value though.

The best soups to gain weight; Egusi soup with catfish reduce okro,vegetable and ewedu.

The best protein to gain weight: sweetened yoghurt, beef, pork meat,mackerel fish reduce snail, goatmeat,croaker.

The best grain and carbs to gain weight: Rice in any form, poundo or pounded yam, bread, yam, gaari, semo reduce beans ,fufu amala,oatmeal and potatoes they will fill you faster and longer.

Best fruits and nuts to help gain weight: avocado, banana, groundnut, cashewnut reduce grapes,berries they don't have much calories.

Processed foods to help gain weight: pizza, burger, kfc chicken and fries, cakes,

Drinks: take peanut butter milkshakes, Google various recipes for milkshakes, take tea and milk beverages,milk, red wine, take soda sparingly because they don't add any healthy value.

Above all how you prepare each meal and the quantity you eat really matters on your journey to weight gain. Also review the rate at which you burn calories because if you burn more calories than you consume you will continue to lose weight. Don't be sedentary but reduce trekking time, gym time etc.

You need about 2000 calories to stay fit each day, so to gain weight you need to add at least 500 to 1000 more daily in order to see appreciable result.

All the above suggestions also works for people trying to lose weight if they are turned upside down.


Op save this comment, that's all u need.

Shalom

My guy I can relate because I was once there but this is what I called inferiority complex that is doing you, you have to have carriage and something upstead, focus on becoming something important in your life and don't let anyone look down on you cause of your size.
If you want to put on weight there is nothing wrong with it but not because of pressure or trying to impress others because adding weight won't make you any better.

I am well educated to have know classis of food bro, and beans has and will always be proteinous, skimmed milk too is protein, its only full cream milk that is fattening.

Great. That's just your opinion and I don't dispute it.

Back to the topic, I have given the OP what has worked for a lot of people.

The Nigerian beans diet has been found to boost weight gain, basically because of the heavy reliance on African red oil which is rich in cholesterol. That fattens you, and the protein in the beans contributes to the addition of muscle mass.

Cheers.

What's your BMI? (Body Mass Index) if it's below 18.5 then you're truly underweight.

Whatever you do, please exercise along all these carbs and sweetened foods being recommended to you else your Blood Glucose Sugar would rise and its very dangerous. You can make further research on it to be sure.

In the morning is pap or custard
Afternoon - anything at all
Night - garri and soup

This is the reason you aren't adding weight.

You eat carbohydrates all through and I'm very sure you don't even eat enough.

Carbohydrates are energy giving foods. They give you enough energy to survive from day to day. You burn that energy.

To add weight, you need PROTEINS. They are bodybuilding foods. Instead of being converted into energy like carbs, they're converted into muscles.

It is very easy, you have an over active metabolism. All you have to do is eat like 7 times a day. You will not believe yourself again after a while. But watch for the health problems of overeating ooo.

Adding weight sometimes depend on rest of mind, good environment and heredity! If you like eat all the protienious food on Earth if it's not in the blood forget it .

Well, those are not good enough.
Be more intentional with your diet if you want to put on weight.
Eating beans like 3times in a week might help you.
Unripe plantains pottage, yam pottage with leafy vegetables, for like 2times in a week will be good for you also.
You can include sweet potatoes or ripe plantains to your beans occasionally to make it more filling and delicious.
Eat more of vegetable soups with your swallow meals.

Include other foods like eggs, chicken/turkey, full cream milk, yogurts...

Don't forget to eat noodles at least once a day.

For a person that is feeding on pap and garri everyday, where do you think he is going to get the money to afford all the pricey food items you listed above?
