Help: Need to gain and Metabolism is too fast!!

[Aussie]

I am 5'8 and weigh 120 lbs. I would like to gain about 10-15 pds. My metabolism is extra fast and it makes me hungry really quick. I know some ppl look at my weight as being a "good thing". However I know that being this size contributes to my esteem and being unable to part take in certain sports. Is there anyone who knows any healthy or unhealthy foods that can help me put on calories?? It takes 3500 calories to build one pound. Can't eat that much in one sitting, but if there were foods that I could divide that up into and munch on I can hopefully gain what I need. Thanks for all that reply.

Have you tried eating lots of carbs? Also, I know a girl that is a bodybuilder and she swears by creatine. I don't know how good it is tho. Make sure you continue to exercise though so that the weight you gain doesn't make you look sloppy and untoned.

Wow, I wish I had your problem:lachen:I agree with China about the carbs thing.

You can try gainer shakes. Lots of calories. Good protien content. And as Chinagem said, keep exercising for your overall health. I use to have your problem, then I hit 30!
