Weight Gainers - What Did YOU Eat Today? - June 5th until June 20th

RULES:

• Do not post here if you are not reaching 2500+ calories. We strongly recommend 3000+ to gain.

• REMEMBER TO EITHER POST THE CALORIE TALLIES OR THE PORTION SIZES!

• Also remember I do not support you using alcohol as a calorie substitute. So if you reach 2500+ with alcohol in your diet, eat a little more to make up for it.

• If you are struggling to reach the necessary amount (and everyone has at some point) then please post a separate thread w/ questions.

• Do not post links to your personal blog.

--------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

This thread is for those of you looking to actively gain weight for whatever reason.

Requirements- If you are a male you need to eat at least 3000 calories, females must eat 2500-this is so that your body can begin to now only gain weight, but also for your internal organs to begin to recover, this takes fuel/calories.

It is NOT suggested that you excercise while underweight.  Excercsie is often an addicition seen with those with eating disorders. Try to stop cold turkey, IF you excercise, 2500/3000 is NOT enough.  You are only harming yourself+prolonging the illness by excercising.

If you are struggling to reach the necessary amount, and we all did, then please post a seperate thread w/ questions.  It is harmful for ppl to see posts that are under the food reuirement amount.  There are suggestions on this forum ontop regarding higher calorie+denser foods that should be incorporated to aid in reaching calorie goals.
