How to gain weight?

You can definitely gain weight naturally, but there's a limit based on your metabolism, which is actually a good thing. Eat healthy meals on a regular schedule. Get enough sleep. Talk to a nutritionist. Cutting back on activity will make you gain weight faster, but I wouldn't recommend that to anyone.
Bodybuilding is the most effective route, though it might not be everyone's vibe. Maybe some light weight training would help you out.
And don't overthink it too much. It’s pretty hard for a girl to get way too skinny, at least in the eyes of most guys 🙂.
What do you mean "hard for a girl to be too skinny"? What happened to the idea that it's better to be curvy? Now everyone attacks thin women like they're anorexic! Honestly, it just irritates me... or maybe I'm just subconsciously jealous of the girls who are a little fuller and only need to drop 3-4 pounds. Meanwhile, us skinny types have to practically kill ourselves just to hold onto a few pounds—training four times a week, every single session intense, every set heavy... eating every meal like it's a mission, sleeping 8 hours, and then eventually just crashing from the exhaustion! I did fine for a few years, but now I just CAN'T deal with it anymore! Whatever! My metabolism runs at full throttle, so I have to eat three times more than what I burn, and playing against nature like that is exhausting.
Now I'm trying things "clean" (without all the training) using Herbalife, and they're the only ones I trust because their products seem legit.
Does anyone else have experience with Herbalife!?
Cheers!
