Hello, I'm new to this whole forum thing, but I have some concerns and
questions regarding weight gain and lean body mass.

Scenario: A 5'11" male, 23 years of age, dropped 40lbs to a weight of
120lbs and is trying to gain weight back through healthy eating and
weight training. (Okay, it's me). The weight gain regimen has been
followed for five months now and seems to be going quite well; work
out intensity is being increased every day, and body is looking more
defined weekly. I'd say results are really showing, especially since I
essentially started from scratch, i.e. having extremely meager muscle
mass.

I am impressed! I weight 172 lbs at the same height, 52 lbs more (!).

Um, no offense to the OP, but I think 172 is a heck of a lot healthier
weight for a man of 5'11" than 120!
