Hi.. Welcome to healthcare magic community forum..
Inability to gain weight inspite of over eating can occur due to thyroid problem (hyperthyroidism) or due to malabsorption conditions. Its difficult to predict which of the two is responsible without evaluation.
I suggest you to get your thyroid hormone profile checked. If they are normal, you will need gastroenterologic evaluation.
Verify your thyroid hormones and reply back for details of gastro evaluations..
