If you are trying to gain weight, it is best to do so in a healthy manner. This means not having all of your excess calories come from fats and unhealthy junk foods. Instead, try adding about 100 to 200 extra calories a day from healthy alternatives. This means lean proteins / meats, nuts, fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy, and whole grains. To do so, this can easily be done by adding one of these things to your diet (extra) daily...
* Medium to large sizes apple
* Cup of yougurt
* Glass of milk
* 5 to 6 crackers with low-fat cheese
* Handful of nuts / trail mix
* Piece of fish
* Small piece of chicken
* Slice or two of whole grain bread
* Spoonful of peanut butter
* Bowl of mixed veggies
* Small bowl of maccaroni
* Granola bar
* Handful of dried fruit
Simply adding these (1 daily) can add 10 pounds to your body in a year.

Weight gain is due the lack of a healthy lifestyle. Eating sugar does not make you gain weight. In fact, sugar is the first substance quickly absorbed by the body to create energy. Fatty carbohydrates are the ones that cause weight gain. Meat and bread and grains have high fat content. The best way to maintain a healthy weight is plenty of exercise, a balanced diet (not gorging on food and healthy food choices), many small meals throughout the day instead of three large meals. Skipping meals can make the body to store more fat thus causing weight gain. Alcohol also plays a major role in weight gain. A glass of wine at dinner each night will not make you gain weight, three or more beers a day can. --Kelsey
