Hi
I have a low appetite and fast metabolism but am looking to gain weight/ muscle. Any ideas? Also need ideas to stay motivated and on a routine. Any takers?

I am the same. Caloric surplus is the only way to gain weight. Having a friend workout with you can help a lot with staying on your routine0

Hi, and welcome to MFP!
You're probably seeing that there are a lot of people here with a weight loss goal, feels like only a few others with a weight gain goal. Take heart, others with your goal exist, and are in the Community.
This is the area where those folks tend to congregate:

. . . gainers and serious strength/muscle mass goals both, in that area.
For weight gain specifically, there's this in the "Most Helpful Posts" heading in that part of the Community:

Best wishes for success with your goals!1
