He's Just Not That Into You (but pretended he was)

Thanks everyone, some helpful advice. I'm definitely going to start some strength training (as I said from the start), but I think I'm going to try and just get a little bit of weight on first, to see if I even can. It's been three weeks and I've manged one pound so far, so I'm not convinced that just isn't a fluke....

Exactly correct! You CAN judge a book by its cover!

The only thing that cheers me up is pugs. Pug, pug, puggies! Officially the most adorable animal in the world.
-
Thanks. I think, after a few weeks of pushing myself, I can feel my appetite getting bigger, so hopefully things will improve soon!

I actually quite like Complan, so don't have a problem getting it down :) I've never heard of Fresubin, but I am really bad at coping with things that taste awful, even if ostensibly as adult!

I have Complan now which is 387 calories, much more do-able. It…

Really? Maybe it was a dietician I'm not sure, I was referred to her by my GP anyway!
-
Nah. I saw a nutritionist a few years ago and they weren't much help, other than telling me to add butter to everything.
-
Only thing is, I'm really struggling with my calorie goal (2150) as it is, and I'll have to consume even more, presumably, if I'm working out too?

[/quote] why not 'fill out' with a bit of muscle and a bit of fat? i dont see why gaining strength could ever be a bad thing? [/quote] I didn't say gaining strength was a bad thing? Where did you read that in what I wrote?! I just said I'm not especially looking to do that right now, I just want to not look so skinny! Not…

Hello! I am also new and trying to gain weight *waves*. Totally agree with all of your rant. Also people saying "Well I wish I had your problem, haha!" - ARGH! NO.
