Cutting Gets Easier?
I ran numbers, based on some conservative estimates of what I could gain in terms of fat and muscle. To get back down to pre-bulk BF%, I would have to lose less weight. So is that the key to the nonchalant attitude regarding "meh just cut down afterwards"? The fact that with more lean mass, you can cut on more calories and…

Anyone else just trying to get a bit fatter?
Everyone on the gaining weight forum seems to be a body builder of some type. I don't want to bulk and have no idea what cutting is, I just want to get my BMI up a bit from 15, because I'm tired of people following me to the toilets after lunch to check I'm not throwing up (I'm not, I love food). Anyone else in a similar…

Women around 5'7 trying to bulk

Rabbit Starvation Syndrome!!
I was doing some research on protein consumption today when I learned about Rabbit Starvation Syndrome.. Interesting stuff..

Does anyone find that nobody actually believes you?
My family, other than my husband, despite being told several times I'm bulking, don't really, truly believe it. They keep saying things like 'oh, though you probably couldn't have that' (because it's high calorie) and 'but aren't you happy you're losing weight?'. It's really weird. I kind of suspect it's because I'm…

Why Are My Wine Calories Wrong? (or am i drunk)
So, Fat = 9 cals/gram, Carbs and Protein = 4 cals/gram. What many people don't know is that alcohol = 7 cals/gram. Tonight, I had "some" wine. When I plugged it into MFP, it came up to 540 calories. MFP lists the carbs at 52 grams and the protein at 2 grams (who knew that wine has protein - bonus). That equals 216…

Weight Gain Goal: Tickers
The Tickers only seem to update/acknowledge/applaud weight loss. As someone who just recently made his first weight gain goal, It would be great to receive some periodic acknowledgement that I was on the right track. I think is what the ticker is currently but only for those seeking weight loss. Am I missing something or…

Gaining weight after being anorexic?
Hey, I have been under eating for so long now and in a way still want to lose more weight because I still see myself as fat although I'm underweight (Not by much my BMI is 17.5 but it really doesn't suite me) Everyone mistakes me for a 12 year old.

Would 1880 calories a day cause a .5-1lb weight gain?
My doctor wants me to maintain a weight of around 120lbs. I am currently under that, and I have to get back up. I am 5'4 and 112lbs. I've gone online and used countless TDEE calculators, but I decided to try and figure it out myself (those calculators, including MFP's, haven't been accurate in the past). I found that my…
