How Can Healthy Weight Gain Be Attained?

Hello. I am very self conscious about my body. I desperately want to gain weight but I have a very fast metabolism and on top of that I m constantly on the go. I hate my body so much and I ve gotten to the point where I don t even wear certain clothes anymore because of how I look in them. I ve researched ways to gain weight, but because of my hectic work schedule, its hard to apply those tips. I don t even feel like I look like a proper woman because of my thin body. I constantly compare my body to that of other females and wonder why don t i look like that?Do you have any advice for me concerning my low body image and how to properly gain weight for being on the go?
