As most of you know, I have Cystic Fibrosis, a genetic disorder that, among other things, makes it difficult for me to gain weight.

But I really really want to gain some weight by the 9th! Like, maybe between five and ten pounds. I've already got a bunch of good fattening things lying around the house, including:

1) Pistachios
2) Twinkies
3) Girl scout cookies (Tagalongs)
4) Peanut butter wafer sticks
5) Butterfingers
6) Lots and lots of milk

Suggest things! Fattening things! YOU WILL PUMP ME UP (with food)!

Perhaps I should qualify: I'd like to constantly be stuffing my face with snacky things. Yeah, the extreme sandwich thread suggests giant meals, but...you know, things I can much while sitting on my ass, playing Tatsunoko vs. Capcom.

Eat foods that make your body produce large amounts of insulin. This will make your body store fat rather than burn it.

Pizza. A Super Supreme or Meat Lovers pizza with stuffed crust from Pizza Hut. Throw in some high calorie wings along with cheese sticks, soda and round it of with some chocolate dunkers.

Order and eat all of that every day.

You could maybe work out. Muscle weight is better than fat weight. Just saying.

Whatever you do, don't have energy and effort. In my experience, those have been the two biggest obstacles in the way of weight gain.

I had no idea. Doesn't that involve a particularly thick mucus in the lungs? Forgive my ignorance, but how does that cause you to lose weight?

He would only be doing it for about a week and a half based on his goal time frame; it would be incredibly naive to think he'd become one of the best ones in that period. I just figured it would be a simple and inexpensive way to get a lot of food, playing them all for chumps.

Ah, I see your angle. If he were to team up with someone to make a distraction, he could probably steal multiple competitors' food, and make out without having to do the paperwork, too.

Indeed I do.

Just got back from the doctor, and I had an AWESOME checkup. Over the last 12 months, I had dropped 8% in lung capacity (never good), but after two weeks of a new medication, nasal irrigation (to cut back on post-nasal drip), and lots of gaming,* I've not only gained back the 8%, but like 2% above that! So I'm in great shape. I also gained weight! Thanks for your support, everyone, and I'm still going to try gaining weight. When I inevitably DO get sick, extra weight will give me a bit of a buffer.

Whoo!

*Gaming probably had little to do with my recovery.

You need to get off Wii gaming. It's too healthy. Get back into last gen or HD gaming where you are allowed to sit on your ass and eat cheetos all day while just pushing buttons on a controller.

I always wait until after Easter and then stock up on the candy when it is cheap. I bought three boxes of Cadbury cream eggs, a box of caramel eggs, a big bag of mini eggs, a handful of Reese's eggs, and some coconut cream eggs.

If it were you, you would melt down all of the cream eggs, use the Reese's eggs as buns, and make a big cream egg sandwich out of them.

I bought all that a week ago and so far I've had only three cream eggs and a few mini eggs here and there. I'm taking it slow.
