I just have to increase my intake a bit above what this MFP app is telling me. Thanks!
-
Great tip! I had no idea. Thanks.

Nice to meet you! I'm in the same boat you were in. 6' and 145lbs! May I ask, how long did it take to reach the 160 mark? I'm gaining, having started at 133, but it seems to be taking a looooong time. Thanks and best wishes.
-
Be sure you're entering in the correct portion sizes, too. :smile:
-
How long did it take to reach 160? I'm 146 now.

Welcome!
-
Thanks bud! :smile:

No joke. It's talked about a lot on these forums. GOMAD - Gallon Of Milk A Day.

Exactly what Orchid said. Log everything in the MFP app so that you've got an idea of what you need to maintain and what you'll need to do to gain. On a side note; Peanut butter is your friend. Add it to everything that you can. Good extra calories.
-
Ultimately, you've got to increase your caloric intake. If you're not hungry, try drinking your calories. Make a smoothie.

Very compassionately and we'll stated.

Thanks for posting this OP. I've gotten quite a bit from this thread.
-
Enter your info in the MFP app.
-
Thank you for taking the time to post this list. :)

I would most definitely speak with your doctor rather than trying to get advice on that here. Good luck to you, hope you have an easy pregnancy. :smile:

Nice to meet you! I'm a guy trying to gain after medical issues. I started using this app and the forums here 20 days ago. I was 138lbs at 6' tall. I'm up to just under 142lbs now. Modest gains, but gains none the less! Stick with it and don't forget to fill out the diary. It's what keeps me on track. Good luck! :smiley:
-
Fantastic! Keep up the hard work - it's paying off!
-
Having to eat,the fact that I ~have~ to eat because I am so thin, makes it a chore for me. Not very enjoyable. So, realising it's my mindset, I'm working on it lol. Best of luck and let me know if you find a solution!
-
Go to your Diary and click the "add food" Button. Then you'll see a search bar.
-
Thanks, everyone! Yes, I'm highly anticipating it's return, too. Lol. Thanks again. Just a few people, but man, they can cause unease.
-
Which is obvious by the thread hijacking to make yourself feel good. Bravo. Hope it's been a help! :smile:
-
But positive attitude is awesome!
-
Well, I can't attest to your awesomeness, but the forum as a whole rocks.
-
Yes, sure did. Hence the "this forum hit 4k in posts." Lol Surely wasn't me, I've been here less than a month.
-
Hi Patrick. Those are some impressive numbers! Nice to meet you.
-
Welcome! You're making positive steps forward. :)
-
Makes life so much easier, doesn't it? Welcome!
-
Thanks for the encouraging words!

45 yo man, 6' 140.6lbs. Lost over 80lbs due to illness. On my way back. Good luck and stick with it!
