    That depends on current weight, height, goals, etc. But, just as with loss, slower is better. Binging on large amounts of high calorie food to put on weight fast is a really bad idea. Just eat a little bit more. How much more? More than you ate yesterday. See what your weight does over a couple weeks. Then adjust accordingly.

    What is behind this question?

    Are you currently under-weight and under a doctor's care?

    Are you currently trying to lose weight and are confused about a couple pounds?

    The answers are going to depend on the circumstance.
