Is it because the weight gain would be too quick?

1200 and he's my primary doctor lol

I am 5'6 21 years old and weighed myself at 101 from the 93 I was 3 weeks ago lol my doctor told me to consume 6000 a day :/

The article was wonderful thank you!

Did the weight gain come rapidly in months weeks or days? Sorry so many questions!

How is that insane if not counting and eating 3000 calories adds up? I eat my cravings and it all adds up so how do I gain slowly without coubting? What kinds of meals?

I do seek help and they said not to count but then I eat my cravings so then I calculate out of curiosity and it all adds up a lot :/

My doctor said not to count so I'm not sure what to do?

That's a little too fast of gaining though, for others it took months and for me it's only going to take days

Ah then if my math is correct then I have gained 2 lbs in 3 days lol

Well I stopped counting but still had my meals memorized from habit of trying to mentally count and all the new foods and meals I added up the last 3 days (I consumed at least 3500 a day for three days) and I weighed myself this morning and I'm up 7 lbs which is scary because my husband was showing me what "normal" meals…

How long did it take you to regain to your healthy weight and what was your intake like? (Such as lots of fast foods or fruits or veggies or chocolates?)

If I were to eat at minimum 3000 a day would I gain weight quickly or will it take some time to process?

Thank you :)

I didn't mean to start a debate I just wanted to hear opinions because I have talked to my hubby about what he likes and he said between 140 and 160 lbs and I just wasn't sure if it's because he just wants me to gain and not telling me honestly what he likes. And I hear so many different things from different people. One…

Aw thank you :) what do you mean by gradual? Would the weight come on quickly or would it burn to replenish everything first?

I have and they said not to count but I'm worried then I won't eat enough to gain because of habits and sticking to the same routine :/

MFP suggests 2010 while the blog says 3000 which one to follow?

They told me not to count so I'm not sure if I should eat a lot more or just a little more. I saw the eatopia blog for 3000 calories so that kind of threw me off because I do not want to relapse lol

Thank you all for your responses, I didn't mean to start arguments though :/ you have been very supportive and health is the most important I know that, I just wasn't sure how someone can be healthy skinny and sexy or if a little weight was better? I don't mean anorexic skinny because I know it's not. Today I went to…

Thank you so much for your response :D the weird thing is is that I have never eaten under 1200 calories and my tdee is 1400 so it's not far off, I could never eat under 1000 lol I don't understand because I lost in a healthy way but not eating below 1200 I just never knew the stopping point I figured my body would tell me…

Congrats on your recovery! :) you said it took longer than a few months, did you hit your ideal weight in a few months or is this including the emotional recovery too? Because right now the last couple of days I haven't been counting but I'm sure I have eaten more than 3000 because I'm on a road trip and have had a lot of…

You all are so sweet and thank you for all of your input :) in order to gain weight should I follow the 3000 diet plan? Or is that for severely anorexic people?

For those who don't think I am serious This is me 5 minutes ago lol

Whoa I don't have another username...

Why do you say that?

Thanks you guys for your opinions I only want honest opinions so even the "mean brutal" ones mean a lot :) And I am 5'6 currently at 95 lbs and trying to gain but I am wondering how much to gain lol

Aw thanks guys :) the first one I weighed 160 the second one I weighed 125 nd third one I weighed 100 so I'm not sure which one to go for lol

any restaurant ideas? im about to go on a road trip to texas :D

Thank you so much this helps A LOT :) yeah the scale will become my enemy lol it already is.... How many calories should I eat to gain half a pound a week do you think? Or should I not count and eat whatever?
