Ok, so I'm 5'5 1/2 and 115lbs. I've had 3 kiddos and I'm 31 years old. For 6 months last year, I drank "mega gainer" 3-4 times per week in a blender with 2 cups of vanilla icecream, 20oz's of milk, 2 bananas & 2 tbl spoons of peanut butter. When I started I weighed around 98-100lbs. After 6 months of drinking that including increasing my cal intake I finally went up to 128lbs. Which I LOVED. But after drinking it soooo long, and it's really hard to digest, I gave up..and because I was happy where I was. For some reason I thought it wold stick. But of corse, about 2 months after quitting drinking it, I started losing again now I'm at 115.. I have a very high metabolism, so its very hard for me to keep on "in my eyes" healthy weight. I don't want to be 100 lbs. Thats too thin to me. For my build, 128 was a healthy weight. Even a little more would have been ok. But anything less is just too thin to me.
Do you ladies have any idea on how I can gain weight without having ingest all those shakes? I'm the type that can eat and eat and eat...BUT, I'm not into sweets, chocolate, or anything like that. I could go months before eating sweets and thats usually only when it's that time of the month. I would rather have grilled verses fried. Just becuase that is my taste preference. I LOVE salads, and even when My Hubby & I go to Subway I get a cold cut trio "salad' verses a sandwich..
Yes, I know, that if I would eat more towards breads and sweets I would prolly gain more, but if I don't like it, I just don't. So I know I have healthy eating habits & thats probably the reason why I'm not gaining, But I would really like to gain at the least 10 lbs. And I also know there are more ppl out there trying to LOSE than GAIN, but please help out if you can. Everyone has their own view of what they want to be or whats acceptable. And being at a healthy weight is what I want. =0) Thanks in advance!!!
