do not drink a bunch of sugar! if you are to put on lean mass then go to GNC and ask for a weight gainer. something about 500cals a serving and just drink one for a snack and one before you go to bed. there you go 1000cals right there.

hehe, most weight gainer products are protein + sugar (dextrose/malto)...make your own shakes w/ protein + oils + nuts + fruits + peanut butter...boom 1k cals...

recipe = 2 scoops chocolate protein (200 cals) + 2 banana (250 cals) + 3 tbsp natty peanut butter (300 cals)...delicious and healthy and hi cal...

Re: Need to make up 1000 calories
 

easiest way to get more calories for you skinny people is to start drinking non-water beverages. This does not mean sugar.

If you are into dairy, start drinking milk...as much as you can tolerate, start drinking things in liquid form, as it's easier to get down and your body doesn't distinguish by nutritional content, only volume... i.e. one piece of bread = 1 head of lettuce, but which will make you feel more full?

Shakes like 2 scoops whey, 16oz milk, severeal tbsp of some type of nut butter, you will be in caloric excess in no time.

Other healthy alternative is drinking a TBSP of olive oil at every meal, or before and after. Try it out.

There has been a ton of hardgainer posts lately. There is an excellent article in this months (maybe last months but I think its current) WRT hardgainers in general, but specifically proper supplementing. Read it, gain weight, profit.
