How can I gain weight in a healthy way?!
Question: How can I gain weight in a healthy way?
Answers:
Hello!
You're right, of course, to avoid junk food.
Here are a few ideas, based on what you've said:
* Maybe you need more simple carbs with your meals so your food will properly sustain you rather than your body repeatedly resorting to stored fat to keep you going.
* An additional light meal, especially if it includes good stuff you might otherwise neglect: steamed vegetables, oily fish such as herring and sardines.
* A high-protein meal (poultry, fish, or whey protein drink) after an exercise session so that your body can use the protein to build a healthy, lovely shape.
* Healthy snacks between meals to supplement your calorie intake. Especially good would be really healthy stuff that you might otherwise neglect. Examples: fruit, maybe home-made fruit salad; varied nuts (keep away from the little one); beetroot; raw carrot.
For ideas on what food is good for what nutrient, and all that jazz, I recommend this book:
The Food Bible by Judith Wills - brilliant value for a tenner.
Have some delicious and healthy Chinese food would be fun and healthy too. If you are interested, here is site with many good recipes.

Increase your protein intake, eat more whole wheat breads and consume dairy products. You might also want to try lifting weights, to gain muscle.Remember, muscle weighs More than fat!
