I am a 21 years old boy , i am about 176cm and 56kg . No matter what i do i can't gain weight . . . At the gym they told me to start taking proteins and muscle gain powder but i don't want to start taking this kind of things because my doctor prohibits it . please help . . . My doctor told me that i suffer from metabolic stress which means that every time that i am anxious or sad i just lose weight , despite the amount of food i eat ,and that i should consult a psychiatrist . Can that be true???

Hi)
You are absolutely right-do not take any pills or protein powders.You can gain weight naturally,it takes time like losing weight.

You need a balanced nutritional programme that will provide you with the right ratio of carbs/protein/fat.

Can you specify what and how much you usually eat throughout the day?that could give me the clues.

i have the same problem, my nutritionist says to increase your calories but i also have a gluten intolerance. it's annoying because i still can't gain fat.

I know the feeling i just can't put on weight or it takes months to put on a few pounds and it drives me crazy, but i can lose weight just like that.
But i've come to terms with the fact it's just the way i am and i can't really do anything about it, but recently i've lost some weight which i just can't put back on and the family and friends are getting concerned and it's really stressing me out cos i'm pretty sure they don't believe that i'm trying as hard as possible to put on some weight.
Just thinking of other possibilities and i was wondering why your so against pills and stuff? I haven't looked into that so your opinion would help.
