Your eyes have not deceived you. I actually saw an article with this title and was stunned and confused. Why would someone write an article on how to gain weight? But, I have to say, it caught my attention much more so than the millions of articles about how not to gain weight over the holidays. The article was actually meant to be tongue-in-cheek and rather points out some of our poor habits over the holidays. The tip below was my favorite:

“Cut the largest piece of pie you can fit on your plate. Add an extra dollop of whipped cream, just because. And remember that — slice for slice — pecan pie contains at least 200 calories more than pumpkin pie.”
