Do you have troubles gaining weight?

I have a really fast metabolism and can't seem to gain weight. The funny thing is, I can't eat meat, it feels like it's blocking my airways. Oily food makes me want to vomit but fatty oily curries goes down smoothly.
I'm always underweight by 5 plus kg, no matter how hard I try, I lose weight faster than gaining it. I've tried everything and nothing works.

The struggle of a skinny girl, we have struggles too. 😔

Look at something fattening and I gain a spare tyre

We definitely have opposite effect.

I used to think I couldn't gain weight. Then I started counting. Almost 30 lbs later I feel like I have unusually good control over how much I weigh

I'm doing that at moment, counting. I eat lots of small meals throughout the day. Eat like a bird, small meals. I'm trying to eat 3 big meals.

I only eat two huge meals a day. I'm in the camp of the fewer meals, the better. Better insulin sensitivity, less hunger throughout the day, etc

Damn...we all have our own sets of problems. Mines being the opposite of yours. I love all different kinds of food. Oh well...

I love food and eat lots of it but can't eat meat. I'd love to dig into a slice of steak.

@LostInTheDesert: Lucky and unlucky for me, I have no problems eating meat.

Yes. I don't mind though, I enjoy being "too skinny", even if people think I should gain weight.

Went to buy a dress, everything look like a sack. Doesn't help that I'm short.....sigh.

We seem to have the same issue. Though oily curry I cant get down either lol

LostInTheDesert · 31-35, F

I love curries.

@LostInTheDesert: Curries are delicious yeah... but not if they're oily lol. Just me.

I don't like a lot of oily food either.

LostInTheDesert · 31-35, F

The only oily food I can stomach is curries, I'm trying to eat as much as I can.
