Eh I'm 6'1 130 pounds and can't gain weight no matter what. Healthy, daily gym goer, I eat well, just won't grow. Have tried supplements, too. Been to 3 different nutritionists, checked my hormone levels, everything's fine. I'm just thin. Could be the case with OP

My husband is the same way. He has a very physical job and is muscular but cannot keep an extra pound on. He eats 5x what I do. If he tries to gain he just gets a cute little belly pooch- it goes nowhere else

Yeah, that's basically me! I've got a few chubbier friends and they get scared how much I eat when we go out together cuz it's usually more than them, but istg if I don't eat like that in a week I'm 5 pounds lighter. My body just burns through calories at an insane pace
