    Default need help to gain weight

    hello everyone.. i was going to the gym 5 x a week and i had gained muscle that i loved. and i looked good. but a few months ago i had alot of things going on in my life that need my other attention. so i stopped going to the gym and i lost weight. now i am trying to start back but am having a hard time gaining weight. and muscle back. i know im not taking in the amount of calories i need and i could really use some advice on how to get back to where i was months ago. i am 5'5 and 120 about would really like to put on about 15 pounds of muscle. any advice would be great.

    What were you doing before? It sounds like it worked.
