is masala oats good for weight gain - #24770

I am kinda confused about my diet lately and need some advice. I've been trying to gain weight, especially muscle, but I keep hearing mixed things about what I should eat. A friend told me that is masala oats good for weight gain? Like, is it really helpful or is it just a fancy way to say it's healthy but not filling enough? I tried masala oats last week, and to be honest, I loved the taste! But afterwards, I felt hungry again pretty quickly. I've even mixed in some nuts and seeds thinking that would help, but I don’t know if I’m doing it right. My workouts have been pretty intense, and I feel like I'm losing weight instead of gaining it, which is super frustrating. Is masala oats good for weight gain if I make it with milk instead of water? Or should I add more toppings to make it more calorie-dense? Also, is there a right way to incorporate it into my daily routine? Thanks for any tips!
