To preface, I kind of know the answer to this. I’ve put on weight before but I was hoping to get advice on how to go about better/more efficiently. I guess my question is really: what are healthy high calorie foods I can use to put on weight?
I’ve been underweight pretty much my entire life. I don’t think I have a chronic eating disorder, but there are times where I just don’t want to eat. I believe, however, that’s actually not my largest issue.
I’m potentially too health conscious. I’m vegetarian by accident (So I dated this girl right…) mostly, and as a result I eat a lot of nutrient-dense but calorically-low foods. I’m currently sitting just under 56kg (125 lbs) at 180cm (5’11ish). My plan currently is to just eat more often, and slowly ramp up how much I eat at each meal. About 6 years back I managed to hit 77kg by eating 4/5 large meals per day but then lost it all over the years by being sedentary and losing my appetite.
Yes, changing dietary habits sucks. But a healthy approach is rarely easy.
Right but it’s also entirely unnecessary. It’s possible to put on weight and consume plenty of protein without meat. The lightest I’ve ever been was while I was still eating meat, and the heaviest I’ve ever been was while vegetarian.
You’re holding your own well, but I just want to encourage you not to let the dude bro gym bros talk you into eating meat if you don’t want to
