Suggest Diet To Gain Weight

Hi , I had a question.... I would like to gain about 10 to 15 pounds. I feel like I m too skinny and nothing seems to work to increase my appetite. I have tried weight gainers like cb1 and didn t seem to work . I was wondering if the drug called Practin really works and where to get it form. I am only about 4 11 , I would like to be around 115 lbs but can t seem to gain the weight or maintain it . What are your thoughts and where can I get it. I have health insurance but was wondering if I should ask my doctor for a prescription or just buy it on amazon . Thank you

Diet is the best remedy for weight gain. Drink 3 glasses of milk which contain fats as well as proteins. You may add protein supplement powder to it. Eat 1 egg daily, which also contains protein and fat. Drink plenty of fluids, especially fresh fruit juices. Add these to your regular diet. Don't eat junk. Go for morning and evening walk for 20 minutes regularly to keep yourself fit. With about 3 weeks time, you will gain weight and also in good shape. All the best.
