Hey I’m Littie I’m 21. My weight goal is different from some instead of losing weight I’m looking to gain weight. I’ve been the same weight since I was in highschool. If there’s anyone who’s similar or has any tips/tricks please let me know!

    I eat a crap ton of sugar and carbs and I’m pretty thick as one might say.

    Lots of information on the topic available out there. Basically it'll come down to this: Eat at a surplus and lift weights. Eat at about 250 calories over maintenance. This will "gain you .5 lb/wk". Note that weight fluctuations happen so the graph won't be a straight line. Do a progressively overloaded weight training program. 5x5 stronglifts is a good one and pretty simple (assuming you have access to a gym). Make sure you are eating enough to replenish whatever you burn during that workout. If you want to do cardio as well, fine, but again you need to be eating those calories back. There really isn't a trick that makes this happen. Simple science.

    There is a whole sub-forum for weight gain. That may be a good place to start.
