What's the best way to gain weight?

So I'm a skinny guy with a high metabolism. I've tried eating more and adding protein shakes into my diet, but I don't seem to be gaining much weight.

Answer:
It's as hard for some people to gain weight as it is for people to lose weight. You need a regular intake of more calories than you burn. Toning exercises will help too. To gain 2.2 lb a month you need an extra 300-350 calories a day.
Keep a food diary. Eat 3 meals plus 2-3 snacks. Make the meals bigger. Have plenty of healthy snacks on hand. (nuts, seeds, raisins, rice pudding, custard or yogurt, cereal or cereal bars, milk, yogurt drinks, smoothies, cheese and crackers, fruit, a small chocolate bar) Keep a food diary for free at http://www.mypyramidtracker.gov/...
If you're too active, take time to relax every day. Once you get up to your target weight, keep up your increased food intake to fuel your exercise.
Might want to have your thyroid checked. Eat at night.
Eat more (stay away from high fat junk foods) protiens and carbs.

Exersise less (do not stop exersising) just do not exersise so much.
Well, then you have to find a way to slow your metabolism. Maybe increase your protein and do less cardio workouts and increase your strength training. It still takes alot of time and dedication on your part, but it will happen.
well I would have said to add more protein to your diet but you already did that..... so try eating healthy and excising.
everyones different with how their body stucture is, it may just be your genes, accept how you are, but keep with te protein shakes and all, eat well in moderation its better to keep healthy and be who you are than trying to scoff yourself with junk food to try gain weight its bad in the long run and youll feel gross too. Accept yourself be glad you skinny we are all differnt there will be people out there jealous of you body.
Your weight is not depend on how much u eat. It is depend on what you eat. Try to have your meal on time and please drink protein shake after meal.
For now, if your self-conscience about your being to skinny. wear clothes with horizontal lines. Belts are horizontal to. Wear clothes with a tartan or checked pattern.
eat 6 big meals a day, every 3-4 hours eat a meal. take in like 3000 to 3500 cals a day. Yeah it's a lot of food, and might make you feel full sometimes, but if you wanna get big it's what you gotta follow. do that and lift weights, you'll be huge, as long as you eat the good foods.
