I would go go with what the directions say liek Amy is suggesting but you'll find that many times, the company's suggestions instruct you to take multiple servings a day so you can run out of your supply in like 3 days (e.g. Cytosport Muscle Milk). Your best bet is to use this rule of the thumb. Eat more calories and if you DO use a weight gainer, take it in between meals as a snack. Weight gainers don't really replace meals. Neither do products marketed as "meal replacements/MRPs"

If you don't know how to take the weight gainer you have no business taking it. I know I sound like a dick but you just wasted your money. Steak and potatoes is the only weight gainer you need and is much better than any shake you can buy.

bump ^^

nevertheless, since you've already bought it, take it between meals. preferably at the 2.5-3hr mark from your last meal.
