Update: Weight is now around 109 lbs. I have been eating what I thought was 800 surplus but gaining slower than expected. My lifts have gone up good. To make weight for an event I have 3 weeks to gain 6-9 pounds (need to be 115-118 for my weight range for the competition). To gain this, I'm going to add another 500 to 800…

I will post an updated weight tomorrow. I am up about 4 pounds after 4 weeks. Lifts have gone up good.

I feel bigger but it might also just be the placebo effect since I know I gained haha. I do think it's been mostly muscle though. My lifts have progressed but not much since I'm trying to work on form first. I'm going for .5-2 lbs week. I'm so skinny and need the weight. Also don't want to miss out on beginner gains

So I've gained 3.5 pound in 3 weeks. Good rate or two fast?

Thank you for the support. They do want me to gain and I don't want disappoint. I also want to gain and get better. It's not always a binge I just mean overheating a bit like on thanksgiving. It's not a binge where I go and eat alone out of emotions. Thanks that's good advice. I do feel more focused now but I'm also still…

Update: I have decided to change my lifting program a bit. I am going to do the same lifts, but at different weights. I decided to not peruse the usual progression rate of starting strength. Adding that much each workout is too much for me. I don't want to be adding that much weight because it's hurting my form. So, I am…

I binged on around 6000 calories yesterday. It was not due to hunger but was a more emotional thing. Just had a really stressful week with midterms and then was really happy since I got some grades back and they were good. So again, it was not from hunger, it was an emotional or event type thing. It was an isolated…

It's 30 minutes of light elliptical, bike, or treadmill. It's not much.

Why am I hungrier on non lifting days than lifting days?

Also I am a former anorexic (been maintaining for a while now though)

Would 1-2 pounds be okay if my workout routine is starting strength? I need to progress each workout so I need the mass
-
But I'm an underweight male who is 19. Lots will be muscle and I can use some fat. I'm a skeleton now haha

So 3000 calories?
