I love this site but the forums and members are mostly about losing weight and I'm on here for the opposite reason. Is there any site like this, but for gaining? I already know about bodybuilding.com but I'm not a body builder either, just looking to gain 15 lbs the healthy way.

    Bodybuilding.com...I know of no other site that will help you other than resetting your goals to where you create a caloric surplus. BB.com doesn't just employ weight lifting, there are subforums in there that focus on fitness in general and they would probably be an asset for you.

    I feel like you could probably use this for gaining weight as far as keeping track of your progress... you would just have to manually adjust your goals to have a higher calorie intake and things like that. I don't know of any sites specifically for gaining though.

    You can adjust your settings here at mfp for gaining weight. They have settings for gaining 1/2 pound to 1 pound a week. You can also post about finding friends who are here for gaining too. Good Luck!

    I'm currently maintaining, but I've had to gain a significant amount of weight in the past - if you need any support, feel free to add me!
