I have always been athletic, but I've always been skinny. Now I categorize myself as "skinny fat." I can eat whatever and not gain much weight, if anything its because of beer. I eat crappy, and I know it, because I can get away with it. I haven't had much time to get back into shape and I want to change that, as well as my eating habits.
I've already started eating slightly healthier and cut soda and candy out completely. I know one of the biggest thing to gaining muscle is eating. My problem right now is just that. I don't know if I can eat that much? As it is, I only eat lunch and dinner. I can't see myself eating breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner and another snack.
So I guess my question is do I just force myself to eat as much as I can to get the calories I need? I'm sure I'll start eating more once I start getting into rythem, but should I just start slow, like add breakfast then in a week add a snack before lunch and so on? Any tips would be great, thanks.

More meals, smaller meals, and food timing. Start to buy some protein bars, or protein shakes. When i had a hard time getting food down, i would take one bite, drink some water. Thats how bad i wanted to gain muscle. It sucked but.. it worked. I would recommend you throw that whole "i want muscles but i don't want to get too big" out the window/ Trust me, I've never met a guy that was like "opps i'm too big, i think i messed up."
