When I was in a position where I had a lot of weight to gain, what really helped me were nutritional supplements, such as Boost Plus or Ensure plus. Add one at snacks, and even meals if needed.

I honestly don't appreciate some of the rude responses. I obviously understand it's not healthy or I wouldn't be reaching out for help.

Then I was told by my doctor that it could be the cause behind some of the digestive issues I was having. I was consuming large quantities of it, which was causing severe bloating for me. Once I cut them out of my…

Find something you really enjoy doing, and it won't feel so much like work! Even just walking really briskly around the mall is better for you than doing nothing.
