    Do you currently weigh your food and track your intake? If not I would hold off on the Apetamin. Start by putting your stats into MFP and selecting to gain .5lb a week, and eat that much. If you're having trouble because that seems like a lot of food then focus on high calorie, low volume foods like nut butters, full fat dairy, fatty meats, etc. There is a list of lifting programs in the most helpful stickies at the top of the weight gain forum, look through those and pick one.
