Hi,

starting from form 3, my body weight just stay at 49 - 51 KG until now, which already age 30,

My height is 173, with 50 kg weight , work in IT field, is like a Skeleton king, have been say by people, aunt uncle and relative many years "aiyooo, your mom no feed you ah?" "you got any sickness izzit?" bla bla bla.

I'm that kind of people that no matter eat how many, still hard gain weight, i rmb my peek is 52 kg by eat a lot, but few days later, drop back to 51, then back to 50 again. Have do body check before, result is normal.
But i'm Thalassemia carry, is that will affect?

Many of my friends tell me to drink weight gain powder and go gym, but i just feel like "aiyaa, dont have sickness then enough lar, let gain weight in naturally"

But recently i feel like want to archive smth, Life is short right? lolz, one of my wish is to gain weight. (since my "naturally gain weight failed", lolz)

i do found some my bad behavior problem
- not drink much water
- sometimes skip breakfast
- sleep late

So my question is, any weight gain successful case here ? the people who like me. Can share your experience?

And is the gain weight powder have side effect?
i hear rumors like
- not healthy to body
- make you Pexxx small (which i think funny, but if true then not funny, lolz)

or any gain weight programme in any gym i can join? lolz

My target no need become like Thor or captain America, just grow some meat make myself look better.

Thanks in advanced. =)

Personally I have increased my weight from around 59-60kg to my current weight which is 73-74. The one thing you must remember is to not let yourself feel hungry at all. The moment you feel hungry your body starts to basically 'eat itself'. Be consistent when eating. Eat healthy and try to increase the number of meals a day and increase the number of calories you take slowly. Just drink milk instead of a weight gainer. Good luck

Wanna gain weight? Eat. That simple. Eat more than what you are eating. Eat more than what you think you can eat. Skip breakfast? You can well skipped as much as 500kcal easily from that breakfast. Your whole day of eating can be only be my breakfast.

Fix your eating habit before thinking of going to gym to train. This is because training takes up calories and calories is what you do not have enough.

No, your penis will not be small. The usage of steroids renders the natural testosterone secretion from the testicles zero. So when your testicles are no longer in use, it shrinks, just like your muscles.

I've always been skinny too but I managed to get to healthy BMI since early 2015. I went from 58kg to 70kg now at 175cm. Hoping to reach 75kg by early next year.

One thing for sure is gaining weight is a painfully slow process. Notice how overweight people did not realise they have put up weight? You need to eat a ton but that's not an excuse to take unhealthy food. When I first stuffing myself with food everyone around me make comments about my bulging stomach which is quite depressing. Make sure to lift weights so that most of your weight gain comes from muscle mass.

Want to gain weight is easy.

The hard thing is to maintain. Can you eat more than what you're eating now? Like everyday for the rest of your life? Gotta change your diet man.

I was in the same boat. I was 48 kg until my mid-twenties, and now at 32 basically floats around 62-65 kg. The process is super slow and I aimed to be around 68-70, but yeah, at least I am happy knowing I look better than I did 10 years ago.

I am intrigue by your statement "aiyaa, dont have sickness then enough lar, let gain weight in naturally". By naturally, do you mean fat? If that is so then it's unhealthy. Healthy weight gain should be muscle gain and keeping your fat level in check or else you'd risk tonnes of health problems later on in life associated with unhealthy weight.

As for 'programs' I find it is those programs are often a temporary incentive, and if you work yourself into a dedicated program, you'll get bored in later stages and you're restricted to what the program offers. It is a,so better to learn to learn about all the ways you can work your body and change them when situation changes, like how when everyone is queuing to use bench press and you skip on working out your chest because you cant be bothered to wait in turn when you can easily substitute that particular workout with other workout.

If you're scared of protein powder side effect, you can always go super natural with lots of eggs, chicken, fish and milk, but you also need more work to keep the fat percentage at low threshold.

Your "a lot" is different with others.

and "a lot" for one two times of the day isn't enough. You need to eat like 5-6 meals a day unless you can eat real lot like 2-3 portions of chicken rice / nasi lemak + ayam.

Drinking weight gain is same like eating more, just its convenient and expensive.

Or you can do it the malaysian way. Get married. A couple of people I know were trying to gain weight years ago but their weight shot up once they're married.

48kg to 88kg then down to 81kg here

'eating a lot but not gaining weight' is a myth

I used to have that thought until I count calories and I realise I'm really not eating a lot

Imagine nasi lemak fried chicken in the morning, RM15 mixed rice noon and 2 regular pizzas in the night. Repeat it everyday for 30 days come back and tell us whats your weight

Weight gainers taste like shit and it's a waste of precious calories, I'd rather drink soda and munch on chips

I advised my friend to change his diet but he insist on weight gainer. Weight goes up and down. Gain weight is easy. Maintaining is hard. Change your diet and you'll be heavier forever, not just for a short duration.

No such thing as "no matter how much you eat but won't gain weight"

you're just simply not eating enough. and on a consistent basis.

And that's it.

Personal advice is to exercise consistently plus extra meals and/or protein shakes. Then your weight gain will be more even out. Otherwise u'll seeing your tummy grow faster than the rest of the body as most of the food intake will be turned to fat lol.

I was a skinny guy also. Eat "alot" but cannot gain weight. But my "alot" wasn't really alot since I tend to skip meals. When I follow proper 5 meals a day + consistent weight lifting my weight went up from 49 kg to 72 kg in a span of 18 months.

Now I stop going to the gym my weight drop to 66 kg. I got take protein shakes after lifting also, it helps.

Based from my experience, when skinny people said they eat alot = not alot. The opposite for fat people.

So basically youre just not eating enough, and at a consistent basis.

Hi

I was 65 kg when I was 20 years old. During this time I worked and use the money to buy food and lift. I also spent on Optimum Nutrition mass gain and a very nice blender.

If you read the label on the weight gainer, you would notice that they recommend two scoops and blended with a lot of milk and you can add fruits for flavor (I went with banana). This is easily 1000 kcal. I gained weight quickly once I got used to drinking that much weight gain while lifting weight.

Now that I am much older, I no longer take weight gain but this is mostly due to replacing weight gainer with actual food. If you're a malaysian eating malaysian food, it's very easy to meet your TDEE. I noticed that chinese food may not be as fattening as malay or indian cuisine, so you might want to try those instead.

Summary
Eat what you like and eat lots of it
Stay away from weight gainers because those are just meal replacements

Weight gaining looks hard but you can do it with some effort. Try to eat as much lean food as you can. You can also intake protein shakes in the morning. Please, don'y get involved with the injections techniques. Join a gym and you will see the results very soon.

i'm totally just like you a 5 years back, 50kg max. i've ate more than normal ppl does, most of them didn't believe i did not gain any weight.
tried weight gain milk not working.

Then, i tried mass gainer by dymatize. no gym, just buy dumbell set and sit-up bench. follow the simple workout routines at home using the app in your phone to track the progress. i gain 5kg in a month, and in less than 8months i got to 65kg using the same routine. nothing too extreme really.
