ellegirl606 answered Saturday March 15 2008, 4:51 am: I agree with the other replies. Carbs and fruits are great, just don't eat junk food! As that WILL make you gain weight, it's not necessarily HEALTHY!
I'd also like to add that you should incorporate weight training. It will help you build muscle. But don't worry, weight training does NOT make women get bulky like men. It will just get you toned. [ ellegirl606's advice column | Ask ellegirl606 A Question ]
person43 answered Saturday March 15 2008, 4:14 am: I agree with what the previous person said, but I just wanted to add that avocado, nuts, egg yokes and peanut butter and almond butter is very fattening. you could build muscle up too, it weighs more than fat and can be more dense. Treat yourself to some ice cream every once and a while. Have fun! [ person43's advice column | Ask person43 A Question ]
soundslikepink answered Friday March 14 2008, 11:37 pm: Come to my house and we'll fatten you up. Haha. Just kidding! I know the world seems obsessed with losing weight, but for some people, gaining weight can be very difficult too. I used to be very overweight, but I lost all of my extra weight by paying attention to my carbohydrate and calorie intake while increasing the amount of exercise I did.
I don't recommend that you go on a binge and stuff your face full of junk food, but I do recommend you become more aware of nutrition labels and more conscious of the foods you're eating - just like a person who was trying to lose weight would have to. Increase the amount of calories you consume on a daily basis. Eat more starches and fruit if you can.
Foods such as pasta, rice, bread, and potatoes can help you to gain more weight. And fruits such as bananas, apples, oranges, and grapes have a lot of natural sugar in them which turns to fat. If you're still concerned about your weight, talk to a dietitian or a nutritionist who can help you come up with a plan to reach your goal weight. As long as you're healthy, that's all that really matters. [ soundslikepink's advice column | Ask soundslikepink A Question ]
