Hmmmm do you think that we are magicians?!!!!! (o;
We cannot tell you how much gain you'll get since we don't know how much you work out, how you eat, how much your rest, your bodytype etc etc!!! AND it's different since EVERYBODY is different........
BUT I can tell you that beginners to weight training see results quite fast (so just keep going strong!!)
Yes your muscles are sore after weight training. It's normal. Feeling sore yes, real pain no.

You'll know if it's a good pain if you feel it directly in the muscle itself. If you're feeling some kind of pack pain ,for example, and it would really hurt for you to bend over, then that's a bad pain. There's a difference between being hurt and being sore. Just lift with proper form and proper intensity and everything'll work out fine.

You might see 1-2 lbs. But it is different fo all of us. Really depends on the diet and how intense one worksout.
Good luck.

It's really slow going. I've been working out for about 6 months (not continuous, I've taken a lot of "breaks"). In that time, I've gained maybe 5 pounds (some muscle, some fat). I wouldn't exactly call those stellar results, and I'm sure a lot of people have done better, but that's me. I think a lot of it depends on diet and following a good program (which ft provides), and everyone is different too so it's not possible to really generalize results. I'd say if you're lucky you might be able to gain 2 pounds in a month, but you really should only take that with a grain of salt.
As far as feeling sore goes, when you're first starting out it's really important to go easy on the weights. You'll still feel sore no matter what because your muscles aren't used to the strain. But if you hit the weights too hard, you'll be really sore and for a long time. I know because this is what I did! It basically prevented me from going to the gym as often as I would have liked, so don't make the same mistake I did. You shouldn't feel sore for more than 2 days. For example if you worked out on Monday, you'd probably feel sore on Tuesday and Wednesday but you should be better by Thursday. So some pain is good, but too much and for too long is bad.

For a beginner gains should be quick as you are adapting to a program. Provided that your diet and training regimen is right on. If If you want to gain you have to eat. Workingout will break down your muscles and food will repair and help you grow. Your muscles which contain 2500 calories per pound will need lots of positive nutrients. Good Carbs. Proteins and fats. Supplement with protein and be sure to Alter your calorie intake for growth and fat lose.
