I know this is kind of an unusual concern in this day and age, but...
I'm having the worst time gaining weight. As in, I can't. I'm stuck at about 100 pounds(roughly 45.5 kilos), and since I'm 5'4" (about 1.6 meters) tall that's pretty underweight. My target is around 125 pounds.
Now obviously I'd like a good portion of that to be muscle, and thanks to the nature of my job and a very generous present of a WiiFit this past Christmas (thanks, Mom!), I do get a decent amount of exercise each week.
So maybe I'm not eating enough? I try, really I do. A couple months ago I was stuck hovering around 95, so I know there's been some progress, but I can't seem to really get up over 100 and make it stick.
So I guess what I'm asking for is stories of times in y'all's lives where you steadily gained weight, with ideas on what to eat and what to avoid. I have kind of a tender tummy so I can't promise to follow all advice I'm given but even just well-wishes would be awesome.
Thanks!
