Weight Gain
Moderators: chrissy1988, positivelinny, nycgirl, lalabanana



Probably ignorance on my part, but I dont imagine everyone on this weight gain forum sits on this website all day or is cooking/thinking/planning recipes and food all the time either.

What do yall do apart from food?

Me?I study, I go to the beach, I shop, I read and occasionally watch tv, mostly i sit around chatting to my friends and family about the wonders and mysteries of life, or just gossiping!Im just curious!

Well, I'm going back to school finally this fall (I'm turning 21 and am still a college freshman :\ )

I also draw, paint, make jewelry, read, go to the sea wall and clean house. Go hiking, out with friends/boyfriend, watch movies, go to local concerts/shows and play good luck charm for my mother when she goes shopping haha.

Im also 21 and just finished my first year in college!, no biggie, you sound pretty busy, i love aking jewellery, great personabale (and cheap!) pressies!

Im 16 go to high school im a Junior.

I love to read .

I love to cook.

And besides excersise and food I love playing call of duty 4.

 

^That game is the bomb

I read lots (V for Vendetta at the moment, it's great), I write fiction, play Xbox 360 or computer games, and draw.

this is a GREAT topic! before i could have told you what i wished i did, what i used to do, now i do it!

i'm a junior in high school, i like to read, write (journaling and creative writing), sing, volunteer, hike, swim, ride horses, play with my wonderful pets, hang out with friends, go to concerts, babysit, tons of church stuff, shop at thrift stores, do art (favorite is deconstructing old books)... i also collect postcards (a cool hobby that's been passed down in my family- literally! i have my great-grandmother's collection, my grandmother's collection, and my mom's) and dried antique roses. i like hammocks. i study way too much. i'm just now taking driver's ed. i'm painting my room tomorrow: the ceiling is blue and each wall is a different color, lime green, hot pink, purple, and golden yellow. :)

take care of my kids, house, husband, and in the fall/spring I take classes. I also train for the half marathon... I hold play dates and stuff like that. and next week I'm going away with the hubby:-)

I miss reading, but I like to write when I'm inspired.

hi guys! i'm 21 and will be a college senior in a couple weeks--yikes! then it's on to the real world i suppose, of grad school and jobs and responsibilities....

took the summer off to relax and get better. right now i work 25 hours/week at a creative writing camp for kids!

hobbies include writing, reading (tons and tons!), watching movies, taking walks/jogs, doing yoga, baking/cooking, playing with my pets (when i'm at my parents' house, anyway), shopping, and doing random crafts. and mostly just trying to keep my chin up! 

School is coming up and I want to do cheerleading <3

I love shopping (which girl doesn't??!), drawing, reading chick books.

Sometimes I pratice my chinese calligraphy.

I also love blogging.

And baking and cooking :)

 

 

I am a 25 year old mother and wife! I work in enrollment and marketing for a university and i have a 3 year old son! Apart from that i usually watch the families favorite shows every night, cook dinner, clean, read, hubs and i love going to the movies, and entertain our toddler!

The main reason i am here is i that somehow i got so busy and lost a lot of weight when i started my job 1 1/2 years ago and now we are ready to have another baby, well, can't really do that being underweight so that is huge motivatio for me!

moonpie! hi! we sound a lot alike! i'm 26 and have two kids, including a 3.5 year old. are you trying to gain weight to have another baby? i did that with my 2nd!

I'm 18, a college sophomore, and work for a retail store. I live with my boyfriend and we're both so busy that when I have free time it's usually spent with him. I love to read, I also like literature and poetry. I'm into yoga and running, and hanging out with friends and relaxing :)

I spend 8-9 hours/day working as a case manager at a community mental health center.  During the workday I help people apply for various forms of financial/medical assistance, take people who rarely leave their home shopping or to appts, run therapy groups, and a lot of other things.  I spend most of my free time hanging out with my hubby, going to dr. appts (ick!), and doing yoga.

 I'm sorry, it has to be said, but would you please shut up


anyway, I'm in high school; I love reading, cooking, antiquing, arts and crafts, knitting, sewing, walking, cycling, music [I play clarinet, bass & piano], and I know I'm going to sound nerdy but I love learning xD

Hello! I'm 22 and I'm from England (yay). I work for Social Services full time at the moment, but in September I'm going part-time as I am going back to University to do a postgraduate degree in English Literature. I like socialising, looking after my pets, exercising, reading, watching DVDs and playing video games.

 Yeah, I am desperetly trying hard to gain weight so that we can have another baby! I never thought it would be so hard!

This is a neat thread... It's interesting to see what you guys are up to!

I have a really busy summer schedule. (I'm going into 10th grade... and am working my hardest to build up my extra-curriculars before applying to colleges!)

A typical day in the life goes like:

6 AM- Wake-up and run on the treadmill. Check e-mail.. clean the house or read with my younger brothers

9-12 PM- Tennis Clinic  OR  9-1 PM- Princeton Review SAT course

~1:30-3 PM- Swim laps at the pool

3-5 PM- SAT homework, study my flying books, practice piano, work on boy scout merit badges with my younger brothers...

5-7 PM- On Tuesdays and Fridays I have flying lessons! Woohoo!!

~7:30- Dinner. yum yum. Then I try to do something productive... For the past few weeks I've been organizing a Red Cross Blood Drive to get my girl scout gold award.

8:30-9:30- Read, or Watch Fox News with my mom! (Best time of the day)

10 PM- Hit the hay!

Oh yay!  I am starting college in a little over a week.  I'm almost 21 and have had to drop out of every college semester I've started in the past:(  But this time things are different!

I've been renourishing myself for almost three weeks now and cannot begin to describe the huge difference it has already made.  I am not the same person I was a month ago!  I'm living, actually living!

It had been so long since I really did anything, or at least enjoyed something.  Now I've just been spending time with my family and taking in every moment.  I also like to read, play the piano (when the mood strikes me), and I LOVE to bounce on giant trampolines!!! (and now I have to energy to!)

PS:  I'm going to be a nurse; I'm so excited!!!  Another great incentive to get/stay healthy and take care of myself:)

Cute thread!

Haha.. 'what do y'all do apart from food?' It DOES seem like it takes up an awful lot of time, doesn't it?

Political Science student here. Not exactly sure what I'm going to do with that degree, but I'll figure that out when I no longer rely on my parents for dough and end up living in a shoebox somewhere.

Otherwise, I like reading. I like spending time with my friends. I work a part time job as a cashier a drug store. Unlike many of you it seems, I am so completely sedenatary right now- the most exercize I do is probably walking around a bit at work. I actually feel guilty sometimes when I compare myself with a lot of you guys on this forum- so many of you constantly feel the need to excersize. I'm so lazy!

Unsurprisingly, I'm also huge political junkie, and follow both the American and Canadian politics scene pretty closely. I like movies. I like standup comedy.

Woooo diverse interests!
