When one of my daughters was seriously ill as a child, she lost weight. On recovery, she was given something called 'High-Carb' to drink which helped her regain weight.

The answer is; do the opposite of what people trying to loose weight do, i.e. take on lots of non-fat high carbohydrate foods.

Drink copious amounts of Coca Cola. It seems to work for much of the population.

I take it you want to build your weight through muscle not fat. Low carb diet with plenty of lean protein coupled with resistance exercise ie weights. Go to a good gym and they will put you on the right track.

There's a reason why animals are fed loads of carbs... they can be fattened up quickly.
Schippie's advice was good but don't go fat free. Your body needs a bit.

[davebro]

the OP didn't specify what the weight gain was for - maybe he wants to take up sumo wrestling!

Or peddle a product in 3 .... 2 ..... 1 ...

I did not advise going fat free. I was suggesting any protein he consumed would be lean such as chicken breast and fish. Unsaturated plant oils are an important part of a low carb diet.

[pastafreak]

I didn't imply that you said to go fat free. I'm quite familiar with low carb ;)

Eat nothing but cornflakes & soya milk 3 times a day seems to work for some
