Holy hell that's insane, I can see why that would scare people away from gaining more. Do you have a recommended speed for gaining , like eat X amount of calories above your metabolic rate per day to gain healthily, or is it dependent per person?

Doctors recommend those who are gaining weight to shoot for 1 to 2 lbs a week. This comes out to 52 - 104 lbs a year.
Most people will not be able to achieve such consistent gaining - especially as they grow heavier. Some might even need to tap out or slow down after some point as well.
Honestly, it's best to gain to your comfort. When you start having complications, that's a good sign to slow down or even take a gaining break. A lot of gainers/feedees will ignore their body's warning signals because they want to be super fat ASAP. However, this short-sided behavior is a good way to end up abandoning your fattening journey and losing the weight later.

💯
It is fun to gain like 5 to ten lbs a week, but just as losing more than 1 or 2 lbs a week is really unhealthy regardless of how much it might fuel motivation to keep losing or gaining, it is not sustainable in the long run.
Torchcacti:
Gaining that fast sure sounds dreamy though.
Anjou:
Dreamy being the key word.
Keep it in that realm.
Most likely that will be the case. But maybe someday I’ll be able to have a little dream, as a treat.
