Hi /ck/, I'd like you to recommend me some meals or tips in order to put on weight. I'm F, 5'3 and like 90 lbs (fuck the imperial system, around 45 kg.)

I don't live in America so let's keep it "international." And poor. I'm a college student and English teacher. I live with a friend who rarely cooks and is a vegetarian. My bf's a vegetarian too, but I like meat too much to give it up.

Anyway, any ideas, comments, suggestions? Thanks.

Consume additional calories.

Honestly though, I have a hard time understanding how this can be a genuine problem. Enjoying calorific food is literally hard wired into your body, and it tends to be cheaper to boot.

>> No.6065675

This would be more appropriate on /fit/.

You want to become a fat fuck tub of lard^H^H^H^H^H^Hcurvy real woman? Just figure out how many calories you're eating per day, and double it. Doesn't matter how.

You want to put on weight and still look good? Heavy weightlifting with a calorie increase to match your increased calorie burn rate, plus maybe 5-10% until you've got the mass you want, at which point you can dial it back to calories in = calories out. About a third of the calories from protein, a third from carbs, and a third from fats. Keep the ratio the same when you switch calories back to maintenance.

Most effective exercises would be compound lifts, especially squats and deadlifts. For a grill, this will give you a great ass and legs.

Vegetarian isn't a problem for weight gain if you pay attention to macronutrient ratios, but legumes are going to be cheaper than high quality meat. If you're really poor, bulk rice protein mixed with bulk pea protein is a cheap way to straighten out your ratios with a complete amino acid profile, just be sure to eat a variety of vegetables, whole grains, and good fats, and try to get as much of your protein from "real food" as practical.

consider either cheaper cuts of meat, or befriend carbs, some ideas for you to buy from the groceries

-liver (beef, chicken, pork, doesn't matter)
-kidneys
-tail (great for soup stock)
-hip bones (also a great soup base)

some butchers will let you take their unwanted bits for dirt cheap, look into that

-legumes
-beans (red beans, kidney, black) (filling, cheap, and pretty high in calories if you have it with rice or couscous)
-whatever is in season; you'll see a price drop anywhere from 10-40% depending on the climate and location.

other great ways to squeeze on extra calories: deep frying, adding butter or fat to a finished dish.

hope that helps.

I tried gaining weight 5'11 130 lb last summer by eating fettucini alfredo every night of the week. I gained 2 lb. The dairy's not super cheap but it it adds up to be cheaper than meat I think.

Boil a buncha fettucini. In another pan melt 1/2 stick of butter slowly. Add 1/4 cup of heavy cream when melted and stir. Grate 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese into it and keep stirring for a while until smooth. When pasta is done drain and pour into sauce.

You need to consume more calories. If you don't care about the type of weight you put on, drinking more sugary beverages is a good way to increase the number of calories in your diet without really feeling it.

Eat three or four big macs a day on top of what you usually eat. That's around 700 surplus calories a day. I do this whenever I bulk. You should fill out in no time. Lifting weights isn't necessary since big macs are meat and therefore mostly protein so your body will automatically convert most of the excess calories into muscle by itself.

Nut butters and kids cereals are two great ways of eating a lot more without you feeling very full.
I mean if I have 2/3rd of a cup of oats, I'm good for a while, but if I wanted to I could go through 2/3rds of a bloody box of shreddies or frosties before feeling as full.... well thats hyperbole but you get the point.

This drink a bottle of eggnog erryday. If you can, do two. If you can do 3, fuck it, go for that. I easily could drink three. That shit is delicious.


Watch the fat pack on. Also, have dessert with every meal. You need to stuff yourself in order to increase how much you can eat.

It's not that eating a ton of high calorie food is a problem, it's just that it does NOTHING to me.
I honestly believe that my appetite is pretty big, and am willing to eat as much, if not more as my 260 pound sibling.
Never mind building muscles, eating a shit ton of eggs, fish, and vegetables do nothing for me.
Are there any types of food that can lower or slow down my metabolism? If not, what are some supplements that'll help?
I really need to gain some weight.

I'm a 5'3'' female athlete (combat sports), 118 lbs. I eat meals with a 1:2 ratio of grain/protein to fruits/veg, with no dairy, no added sugar/honey/anything, no refined grains, and no wheat, barley, rye or oats. My caloric needs can hit 2800 on wrestling days, and some nice things that work for me are:

-add canned coconut milk or a spoonful of coconut oil to my morning coffee
-avocados, avocados everywhere
-olives (my kalmatas are 100 cals/8 olives
-black beans
-dips & sauces for everything, hummus, salsa, mayo-based salad dressings, tartar sauce on fish, olive oil on roasted veg, etc
-starchy veg like sweet potatos, yams, beets, carrots
-multiple servings of fruit throughout the day
-nuts (200 cal for a quarter cup), also nut butters

she obviously is one of the people who are genetically predisposed to have abnormal leptin and ghrelin levels, making them both less hungry and making them feel full more quickly than most people. Suggesting that such a person follow a diet similar to yours (which is almost exactly how I eat btw, I am a weightlifter and dancer), is foolish. She will not be able to eat a sufficient amount of calories with those restrictions.
