    im skinny

    5"7 around 123 pounds

    im going to start working out a few times a week and eating high calorie food for the summer

    just wondering how much weight i need to gain or how long until i stop looking at least fairly scrawny

    i know about the "pound a week" thing, but its not just muscle i want, any weight in general id be happy with even abit of fat

    Male? I'd say you could put on 3/4 stone by September without dying, depends how much you're willing to eat.

    Maybe he meant 3 or 4 stone, not the fraction.

    Sky is the limit man! If your a real "hardgainer" then forcefeed yourself for a while, you have to stop looking at eating as being a pleasure, make it a job that HAS TO be done, see where it takes you.
