Re: I\'m 6\'4 120lbs...no joke...help?
[ QUOTE ]
Lol Y'all have inspired me to heat up the leftover porkchop/mashed potatoes in the fridge... maybe I can bump it to 3k today, but more than that would likely be a mistake [/ QUOTE ] no it wouldnt, eat 4000 cals, maybe more, 3k is not going to help you gain weight, it will just help you from losing whatever fat you might have. I have a friend like you, 6 3, 120, he had a tough time gaining weight, but the fact is he didnt eat a lot.

But my stomach is small and definitely not used to consuming that much...especially if it means devouring 2500 more calories in the next 5 hours. If I thought my stomach could handle it, I'd totally be down. Eating to the point of puking isnt an option.

Then you'll likely never get any bigger and reach a healthy weight. Sorry.
On a side note, if you can't afford to see a doctor to see why you're 50+ lbs underweight, maybe you should be that as a first priority instead of asking us.

Idd venture to say you can ramp up your calories to 5k and not see too much fat gain if you hit the gym. Eat a lot of food in liquid form to speed digestions (protein, peanut butter, and olive oil shakes should become your friend) and so you dont feel as full. Eat as much peanut butter as you can, its calorie packed.

[/ QUOTE ] The last time I went to the doctor(~2 years ago) I was the same weight, and the answer was "you'll grow out of it". I've also been this way -my whole life-. So unless I've developed something new in the past 2 years (possible) I am probably healthy... or at least do not have any serious medical conditions. Saying "you'll likely never get any bigger and reach a healthy weight. Sorry." just because I refuse to eat myself to the point of vomiting is not constructive in any way.
