I am 20 years old and only weigh around 57ish kg. Around summer time this year I started trying to eat healthy and increase my intake focused on macros to try gain some muscle along with going to the gym. Now since I went back to uni around September time I haven't been working out so much and decided to focus on calorie intake rather than macros and have been averaging anywhere between 2300 - 2500 calories sometimes more but I am still the same weight to when I started around 4/5 months ago... even if I dont eat much I dont even really lose any weight I am not sure what to do haha. Also would like to mention that I am 5ft 10 if that has any value.

great, now you know your maintenance is around 2300-2500 calories. eat 300-500 calories more and watch your weight go up
