Sometimes genetically, there's not much you can do to gain weight. But you can do things to help. Forget the jogging and dumbbell curls, and do full body weight training 3 times a week with heavy weights.

Also your family may cook a lot, but if it's mostly rice and noodles, the weight gain will be a lot of visceral fat (organ fat). Keep eating as much as you can, but focus on eating meat, meat, and more meat. Every meal you eat should have mostly protein and fat.

Keep this up, and you will be more muscular, stronger, and have better cholesterol and your organs will work better.
