Somewhere from 200-230, although I may toy around with cutting the carbs some and going higher. On non workout days I cut the carbs and raise fats.

you could always add a 2 tablespoons of olive oil to each meal. 10 per day gets you 1,200 calories. It's really not bad for you. However, just try to eat healthy and train. How skinny could you be?

Nutella, lots and lots of Nutella.

Please don't tell me you're at least 40 years old...eek.

I look awesome for 40, don't I?

No chance this is worth it.

Back when I was young (30), I went from 160 to 185 in a year. Heavy lifting 3 times a week and lots of carb loading. Cardio was reserved for normal sports activity (hoops, softball, football). Shakes are great for your cause. When you lift, train all parts of your body. Core is key.

Now I am 44 and married with kids. gaining weight is not a problem. Hovering around 205 or so but now work out to keep that weight there.

Sulls -- you and I have the same body structure. It took me about 5 years of lifting about 4x week and eating a ton to gain 30 lbs. It's just an up hill battle. 4=6 months is nearly impossible.

that's what my initial thought was. and flops, i'm 10000000% down for that anyways.

If you treat the gym like half the super skinny people I know then maybe. But I've had friends your size/build who have worked hard and had huge weight room gains.
