in Goal: Gaining Weight and Body Building
I recently lost 3 stone and my bra size is significantly smaller and I've lost a lot of fat from my bum. I want this back so if I was to gain a stone would it go on in the same places I lost it. E.g. My bum and boobs. Any ideas would be great thank you

    To some extend. Some part of where you store fat is genetic. And also existing fat cells don't disappear from your body. They just store less fat when you lose it. So yeah, the same cells will start storing fat again.

    But mind you: also all of the other fat cells will, in the places where you do not want it. For the bum, building the muscle is definitely the healthier choice.

    Not for me...I tend to lose in my ribs/back and legs/butt, however when I gain it mostly goes to my belly...if I lose and then gain a few pounds, then it just screws up the proportions of everything!

    UGH I have a similar problem. I lose in my legs first, belly last, but when I gain, I gain in my belly first. The more I yoyo, the bigger my tummy gets. *grumble*

    If I just gain fat, it does. Luckily, when I gained muscle most of it went to my *kitten* and thighs. :) You'll probably like the results of weight gain a lot better if you do a structured lifting program and gain slowly.
