Is it normal that i am putting weight slowly?

I am 18 years old and my weight is 58Kg ...This is strange for me because all of my family including my brothers and cousins are healthy...They eat as much as I do but still they look healthy then me...My father thinks I am not gaining weight because of smoking..Is it true ..and can you suggest some ways of gaining weight?

    Smoking does suppress appetite (I'm assuming you mean nicotine and not weed) and it will also give you a 50/50 chance of dying of a smoking related disease.

    I have emphysema/COPD and it is no fun at all and will definitely shorten my life.

    So .... why not try giving up by whatever method works for you and see if that helps your weight. If not, there are healthy ways to gain weight: never been a problem of mine but I'm sure your doctor or a dietician could help, plus there must be info on the internet that doesn't involve buying unnecessary expensive supplements.

    Maybe you have to be more attentive with what you eat. It's important now to eat less calories than you burn so you won't gain weight anymore and start losing it.
    Maybe you are interested in some weight loss procedure and weight loss management?
    You can see the best clinics doing all these and check some testimonials: http://www.placidway.com/medical-centers/,,Mexico,,Cosmetic/Plastic_Surgery/Relevance

    Ways to gain weight? Eat lots of processed foods and don't exercise. Smoking shouldn't make you gain weight unless your smoking weed and then binging on junk food.

            And what are you really trying to accomplish? Are you trying to get fat or add muscle? Are you male or female or something in between?

    You have to count calories, otherwise nothing will change. The mind is amazing when it comes to proportion sizes. What you think is a large meal, isn't. Only through the habit of eating more will that perception change.
