Most of the diet plan out there focuses on weight loss, but there are quite a number of you who has been requesting for a WEIGHT GAIN meal plan. The truth is, gaining weight can be more challenging compared to lose weight.

The 1st rule is you need to eat A LOT more than what you're currently consuming. But that doesn't mean you should be eating junk food because your body needs proper nutrient to grow your muscles in a healthy way.
