Any advice for me?

I am a REALLY active man in his mid-thirties.
I walk about 6kms in my daily city routine.
I train in martial arts and love to bicycle.
I also lift weights.

My problem is that I stay at the same weight
(165-170). I'll gain muscle, but then my body takes it from
fat in some other part of my body; so I get more grizzly looking as opposed to more puffy and presentable.

I eat a lot and keep the BG at an okay level (upper 100's,
lower 200's prior to physical activity), but I can't figure out where I can find room in my insulin regimen to eat more.
I tried eating several small meals during the day instead of 3 biggies, but my Humalog bolus' kept overlapping (even after 3 1/2 hours between meals) so I abandoned that.

Lately, I've been adding a hard-boiled egg to my lunch and dinner, but I know I need more.

My situation is funny, because I actually want to get fatter.

Any ideas how to do this without making the BG crazy or
eating a tub of artery-clogging lard?
