A member asked:

I am a pure vegeterian, how can i gain my weight ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Same as: Anyone else; for each 3500 calories you eat that you don't burn off you will gain a pound, best to combine healthy eating with daily exercise to gain weight and muscle no matter what species your dietary intake is made of, .
