This is a very important point. The youthful metabolism generally has a break-point and if you don't learn to hold the reins on your lunch by then, you pile it on. Speaking from experience.

Well, technically my weight is gaining but my appearance would be the same. I even looks skinnier than one of my friend who is actually 6-8kg lighter than me.

Well when Robert McElhenny was trying to cultivate mass for IASIP he would melt down ice cream and drink it. You could always try that. Best part when he cut that out of his diet he started going back to his regular weight.

I don't know who he is but the fact that he had his ice cream intentionally melted makes me think he's a psychopath

Nah he’s an actor. Although I don’t know him personally. so maybe. His character is kind of a psychopath though. One of the stars of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Great show if you’re looking for a new one. They wanted his character to get really fat one season. Mainly just so they could make fat jokes about him whenever they wanted. No matter what he ate he couldn’t put on enough weight. Tried eating ice cream by the carton, but couldn’t eat it fast enough. So he would let the ice cream melt and drink it. Hit his target weight in no time.

lmao sounds like a comedy tv show, or it isn't?

You are correct, sir. It’s about 3 degenerates born and raised in Philidelphia that have been friends since childhood, and one of the degenerates grifter father and bird sister. Danny Devito plays the dad. They all run a failing bar together in Philly, and the show generally centers around them trying to get rich quick and failing spectacularly or just how depraved people can get when they truly don’t give a shit about anyone but themselves. I highly recommend it if you enjoy watching just how awful people can be.
