For those wanting to GAIN weight, here's the other side of my wife's cooking. Avoid if doing weight loss.
No-Bake Chocolate Eclair Dessert
Ingredients
Filling:
2 boxes vanilla instant pudding
3 c. milk
250 ml Cream whipped with 2 tablespoons of Icing sugar
1 Packet of Digestive Biscuits/ Tennis
Topping:
1/3 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
1 c. sugar
1/4 c. milk
1 stick (1/2 c.) butter (or margarine)
1 tsp. vanilla
Directions
For the filling:
1. Combine pudding mix and milk; beat. Stir in whipped cream.

2. Place a layer of Digestive Biscuits in the bottom of a 9x13" dish. Spread 1/2 of the pudding mixture over the biscuits. Repeat with another layer of biscuits and pudding; then top with a final layer of biscuits.

For the topping:
3. Bring cocoa, milk, and sugar to a full rolling boil; boil about 1 minute, stirring very frequently. Remove from heat and cool one minute. Add butter and vanilla; stir until butter is melted.

4. Pour chocolate topping over the top layer of Biscuits.

5. Refrigerate over night.

Enjoy! (Seriously, enjoy! ... this stuff is soooooo good.)

People who say they cant gain weight "no matter what" are full of it.

Its easy to gain weight. Even if your body has a high metabolism that equates to only 300 extra cal a day.

I'm the same, I lost a good number of KG the end of last year when I was very busy at work and ate takeout twice a day for most days in a week I even stopped doing my regular bike rides. I did get a nice beer belly as a result though.
Eating junk is not healthy though.

As others have said eating well and enough is maybe 80% of the job exercise helps and keeps you healthy but weight wise its only a small part.

Its the same as overweight people, you either lying to yourself or dont know any better. Manage you diet and the rest just takes a good amount of time. I wont say its easy though it takes commitment to change your nature.

Unless you have an overactive Thyroid.
I had that, most awesome thing ever. I ate like a horse, whole day everyday anything that I could get my hands on, my favourite was buns and chips for snacks, and weighed 50. ( I'm 1.75m tall )

Saddest thing is when it then stops working completely.... you go fat thinking about food. :(
At least there is medication for both of them, it will never be the epic food fest again... but at least I have a very slow metabolism compared to no metabolism at all.
