How do you gain fat?

<p>That's right, fat. And for a girl, although perhaps guys may have tips. Cuz I'm tired of being anorexic-looking skinny. </p>

<p>I already sit on my butt all day and don't exercise at all (don't even have P.E.) And I eat a normal amount with a lot of snacks etc. I occasionally try binging myself, but it's not fun to do. </p>

<p>What else can I do?</p>

<p>EDIT: To give perspective, my BMI is 15, according to kidshealth.com. ._. It saddens me.</p>

<p>Run a caloric surplus.</p>

<p>Lolololol, you should really start exercising. Eventually your metabolism will slow down and you'll balloon.</p>

<p>Simple sugars does the trick</p>

<p>Eat fat .</p>

<p>Go to college. Freshmen fifteen will take it from there.</p>

<p>Snack on butter</p>

<p>^ LOL. I've actually tried snacking on butter before XD</p>

<p>go to mcdonalds every chance you get. dont buy anything just ask for the grease leftover stuff.</p>

<p>I think you mean you want to gain weight? Just wanting to gain fat is plain stupid. You want to get heavier, not increase your risk of a heart attack.</p>

<p>realistically. eat protein. continue a healthy diet of vegetables/etc. but carb it up. protein and carbs.</p>

<p>i probably need to gain some weight too. im only 90 pounds...</p>

<p>Well, I guess I want a combination. I gain weight when my sport starts, but it just turns what little fat I have into muscle. Making me look skinnier. So yes, I do want to gain some fat.</p>

<p>You're a bit skinnier than me. But then again, that depends on how tall you are...</p>

<p>lol im thin but if i stand next to my friends i need a little meat. You have the same problem as me.. you have a high metabolism and no matter how much you eat you're not going to gain one pound. One of my friends is a pig but he's a football player and after lunch i give him what's left of my lunch and he eats it too but he doesn't gain weight. and ewwww you ate butter!! that's nasty. i HATE the smell of butter, it makes me want to puke.</p>

<p>Eat one of those dutch protein bars that people give to the kids in Africa. I'm sure that would help you gain weight like crazy.</p>

<p>@Ivybound11: eh. i tried it once, but you're right it's disgusting by itself. i also tried eating a jar of peanut butter, but it's too hard after awhile ;-;</p>

<p>@dukebound11: that reminds me of mean girls.</p>

<p>@ mulberrypie</p>

<p>That's where I stole the idea from!! Rofl.</p>

<p>i am so lost.... OMG i just got it n NOOO im not mean lol.... that football player is in my AP class.. sheesh</p>

<p>eating fats and meat will not work well for gaining weight. Simple sugars and crabs cause you to gain fat.</p>

<p>so your saying stuff like candy and chocolate right? :D [[i hope XD]]</p>

<p>Eating fat and butter won't work too well. Best way to do it is to take simple sugars a lot to spike your insulin...lots of soda (HFCS), jams, cookies. Reduce fat intake to <50 g/day...Reduce protein and fiber intake. Skip breakfast. Simply, do what 70% of Americans are doing right. Then 10 years down the road when your bad diet habits go in a vicious spiral and you end up being obese and can't walk without being winded, you work hard to get it off... </p>

<p>or, you could train hard and eat smart and gain lean muscle. If you think that'd make you look masculine or whatever, look up Jelena Abbou.</p>

<p>p.s. you can't turn fat into muscle any more than you can turn lead into gold. want even more fun facts? you can't 'burn' or create fat cells :) only shrink/expand the ones you have already...if you want better customized tips PM me I can help.</p>

<p>^ uh, i don't want to be /that/ unhealthy. i just want to get some meat on my bones -_-; and no, i'm not worried it'll make me look masculine. the thing is you need fat in order to have muscle. and right now, if i gain muscle, i'll look skinnier even though i'll weigh more.</p>
