If you are taking a nutrition course you likely know that you are underweight and what the health risks of being underweight are. At 116 pounds you were actually at a healthy weight.

She kind of acknowledged that in her post?
Happy for you to add me if you think it will help. I struggled for years to gain weight and probably couldn't have done it without the help and advice on here.

Hey I started last spring at 95-100 and I'm holding at 105-6 with my weight training currently. I'm almost 29, a mom to a 6 year old, work full time and I struggle with low blood pressure and hormone induced depression.

I got very frustrated with my gaining this spring because my 2400 calorie intake only got me a 1/2 lb a month instead of 1/2 a week. I put it on pause for my mental health this summer and I'll be doing another gain again this fall (probably late September through November). I weight lift at home currently with some dumbbells, a doorframe bar, a Swiss ball, yoga mat, and some basic resistance bands. I don't do cardio because I get bored with it very easily. My weight regiment goes along with the body beast template (found on Google) and I've been very happy with the muscle gains (which adds some weight, too).

I eat super clean most of the time which is my biggest hurdle to gaining. I'm all about nutrients and quality over quantity of food. Obviously that makes getting a lot of calories difficult. I work in the food industry, too, and I love the stuff. Knowing what goes into dishes to make it more dense in calories helps. You can add me I can never figure out how to add people.

Hi
I'm on a gain journey as well. Went from 90lbs to the 101 since January. But I'm just stuck there, can't seem to get enough calories. Would love some nutrition help and overall help each other to gain weight. Add me!
