For context, I am roughly 5’10” and 150 lbs. I work outside and generally on an 8 hour day which is my norm, I’ll walk at LEAST 4 miles. I realized recently that’s probably the main reason I don’t gain weight, I walk all my fat off. I obviously have no problem with people that are overweight or people that don’t look like vogue models, that’s an unrealistic standard to be set(and feeds into consumerism but that’s a whole nother convo) but I would like to gain weight without being overweight. I am not skinny, I’m decently muscular not to pat myself too hard but I would like to get bigger. I know muscle weighs more than fat but I know I also need body fat. I eat lots of chicken and meat. I really kinda eat unhealthy and have lots of typical American comfort foods but I don’t go hard on dessert really. I do like fruit and yogurt too. What should I do to gain weight without eating unhealthy foods? Will exercise make me gain weight eventually or would it take a crazy long time?
Ooh, now you’re talking, I usually don’t like veggies, but soups and fajitas are actually very good at disguising them. I also love potatoes and carrots, stuff like that. Also I usually get low fat yogurt just because my Mom needs it and we always have some in the fridge, but full fat is a great idea of getting healthy fats into my diet!
You can pack the recipe out with foods you love and disguise a few that you don’t but you know are good for you, then stick it all in one of those good tubs with a seal so it doesn’t leak.
