How to gain weight when eating lots Eat and eat - And still don't - Gain Weight?
"Count how many calories you eat in a normal day. Don't change anything, just eat like you normally would and count how many calories you consumed. Starting the day after you counted calories, eat 500 calories MORE then you normally do. So, lets pretend that the day you counted calories you counted 2000. For the rest of the week, you would now eat 2500 calories a day"
There are a number of practical steps you can take to gain weight.
Stage 1 Before you even consider improving your absorption rates, investing in weight gain drinks or going to the gym you need to know your energy balance. Even though you are eating lots and lots it could well be that you are burning every item of food consumed.
Your energy balance will be unique to you - it is based on your current resting metabolic rate (how many calories you burn before any activity) combined with your daily activities - the amount of calories you burn as a result of your job, looking after children, sport, weight training, etc. The key to your success will be knowing this figure - that way you will know once and for all if the reason you are not gaining weight is due to the amount of food you eat or your absorption rates
Stage 2 Wellness Assessment If you are not absorbing all the nutrients from the food you eat, then you are wasting a lot of money and benefits. The key is to do a 'health and wellness' assessment to find out exactly your current status, and if (or how) the changes needed to improve your absorption rates. For example in the " Healthy Natural Weight Gain Manual " we will help you assess your own absorption rates and recommend ways to improve it. The manual contains questions like :
We then show you why some items are important to gaining weight, and some you can ignore. When you get the manual within the next hour you will know your energy balance, if your absorption rate is something to worry about - and what you can do to get maximum benefit from everything you eat.
Stage 3 If you are eating lots and not gaining weight then you will also need to focus on what you are eating the types of calories you eat are just as important as how much.
This doesn't mean you will need a complete change of diet - it simply means selecting the right kind of foods which will work for you.
Even within your normal diet it is so important to focus on high-power foods - and ideally as healthy as possible (i.e vitamins, minerals, etc.). The healthier you are, the more success you will have in gaining weight Linked to this try also to plan your diet - you will get far better results with more "smaller" meals than one or two large ones
