5000 calories a day and still hungry🤔

I at one time had a hard time gaining weight as well but Im currently eating 4800 - 5000 calories a day, 5'9 215lbs medium frame, 45 years old but I hate my stomach and look pregnant!! I asked my Dr for a tummy tuck and it was a quick NO due to my anemia. Every since I stopped drinking I eat all the time and drink Frappe, Ensure and shakes on top of all my food.

Why are you drinking the Ensure? In general, drinking your calories is a great way to get a lot of calories without filling yourself up. So cut out the Ensure, and the shakes, and the Frappe, and as many other liquid calories as you can.

ETA: Today you had 1800 liquid calories (plus some ice cream) and over 200g of sugar! And I have to imagine, very little fiber. Focus on limiting those beverages and treat foods and try getting more substantial, nutritious food into your diet.
