Hello there.  I can understand your concern.  Have frequent high calorie meals daily. Some people have high basal metabolic rate.  Consult a dietician for a detailed diet chart and hit the gym to build muscle mass. It will take time to gain but its not impossible. You can use protein supplements also. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
