Re: Safe weight Gain
hey, i had the same problem. i think we don't anticipate how much one needs to eat to gain weight until it actually happens. we think we are eating enough/more but it's not nearly enough! i would say to increase your portion size gradually. i was used to eating a certain amount to be full so it was quite hard to get used to eating an increased amount. i also used to eat quite a small light lunch but now it's much more substantial. try and snack between meals on things like nuts. i used to have a bowl of cereal (the kind that's jam packed with nuts and stuff) for a snack so i was having 3-4 bowls a day. also, more carbs! just like losing weight, it's something you have to keep up with daily to see a real difference, eating some cake every few days won't make a difference!
