Early 20's must be the most horrific time in any boys life fuck me one apple and you gain like 42 pounds. OH THE HORRORS. Except that's not me at all. I was 210 lbs at 14, at about 5 foot 3. So yeah I was pretty stereotypical computer kid who gets really fat. Anyway I'm 5'9 170 now so obviously much improved. I dunno what happened today lol. Just got really hungry. Ravenous. Probably won't end up eating anything for dinner. See how I feel. :p
Just don't make a habit out of it. Used to be quite porky myself put on a ton of weight when I stopped growing. But then again I'm 2 meters tall when you grow that much you need a ton of energy.

A package of ramen is 500 calories? I had no idea. I can use this as an inexpensive way to gain weight.

that actually happens.
Also when ever I go to China I actually think "WHO IS YOUR GOD NOW? I will crush you all!"Which is ofcourse very racist, but you're allowed to be racist in your own head.

There was a documentuary where they got 25 people that were very thing and put them at 750 calories a day over what a normal person needs for 6 months, a surprising ammount of them hadn't gained a single pound after the time was up. Yes most thin people don't eat alot but some of them eat like horses and can't seem to gain weight.
Weight gain or loss boils down to one thing. Calories in vs Calories out. Every 3,500 Calories more you eat than you burn you gain one pound.
People with fast metabolisms might burn 500 more Calories a day than a typical person, maybe in some extreme cases 1k more, but I'd be somewhat skeptical of such a claim. Additionally people that have high metabolisms often results in part from things like muscle mass, activity patterns, eating habits, etc.
In any event even if someone had a metabolism in which they burned 1,000 more Calories per day than the average person they would need somewhere between 3,000 and 3,500 Calories per day. If they are snacking once or twice a day at 1K Calories per day plus normal meals, they will gain weight.

People like to focus on good metabolism all the time there are those with really bad metabolism that can't gain weight because their bodies simple can't take up the energy from the food and it comes out the other end unprocessed, I would think those are more common amongst those that are really thin and just seems to not be able to put on weight.
