Hi there,
Maybe your metabolism goes too fast just like my, that's why its didn't asurb anything. But frankly speaking you really sounds ok to me. If you really wants to grow fat, perharps you should exercise and eat more(eat healty food)(Hope I am right) If not, you'll turn skinner. I am a good example, that's why I looks like a bamboo now. ~
Some pple take supplements and exercise to build muscles, so they'll look fat. Or you can try using dumb bells, plates or bars to tone up your arms?.

Hmmm....I wonder if you are still very young (< 25 yrs old) b/c if so, don't worry...age alone will get you fatter.

Hi

Weight training should help you to get your muscles toned and you should put on some weight after that.

unfortunately there's no way of controlling where the fat goes and comes off first. i think you mean you want to gain lean body mass and not fat on your upper body right? -eat more than you're burning and do heavy weight training for the entire body, as well as about 30 minutes of cardio 3 times a week to lose bodyfat or minimise fat gain.

there is no such thing as toning. to achieve that 'defined' look, your bodyfat has to drop and your muscles have to grow bigger, which is the only way they grow.

Try buying those protein shakes from GNC. They're called "Weight Gainer". It's this powdery substance that you mix with water or milk and drink after every meal. They have tons of calories and will help you gain weight. Good luck!

there's also a supplement called overdrive that can help your muscles to recover from exercise, so that when u work out, u won;t get skinnier and lose bulk instead gain more definition in the muscles

its good for those who really work out alot and for those who are also beginning a exercise regime... helps to lessen the harmful damage from all the free radicals produced during exercise... then after ur exercise... won;t feel soo many aches and pains the next day... can help to improve endurance levels as well, if u need to know more abt it u can email mi at xwyer(at)yahoo.com
