edited December 24 in Goal: Gaining Weight and Body Building
Anyone interested in tracking weight gain. I started the year at 5’9” 157 with a goal to get to 175. So far I have gained 4.1lbs to 161.1lbs. The biggest change for me has been tracking my calories in addition to lifting weights, I didn’t realize some days I just didn’t eat enough until I started tracking.

Height 5’9”
Starting Weight 157
Current Weight 161.1
Goal 175

    I had the same problem, but I've become obessed with eating. The blender is your best friend, its easy to get a lot of calories down when you drink them.
