Your gateway to endless inspiration
Hi! I was wondering if you have any advice for someone that’s been struggling to gain weight while smoking weed? I’m 160 cm and 40kg 🙏
I love asks like this. Is your issue with eating enough food? Or are you just not gaining weight, despite how much food you are eating? There are solutions to both of these.
If the issue is just not eating enough food, and you get full quickly, there are a couple ways to address this.
1. The most mild way is to be patient. Just keep eating until you're full (and then some) with every meal you can. It's a matter of stretching your stomach out to increase capacity over time. It'll happen. You just have to be consistent.
2. Incorporate bloating into your week to stretch your stomach and belly skin out. These will increase your capacity dramatically. Soda chugs, large amounts of water, bloating pills, coke/mentos etc...
3. My least favorite way is intox stuffing. Drink beers with your meals. Your natural inhibitions subside, and your body doesn't recognize that it's full as quickly. Im just not a big fan of alcohol and am mostly sober myself.
4. Appetite stimulants! You can buy these at your local supplement store or even online. They stimulate the production of grelin (the hunger hormone) which makes you very very hungry and inhibits the hormone, leptin.
Feel free to mix and match some of these. I think you'll be able to eat much more in no time.
Now, if the issue is you're just not gaining weight...
1. Liquid calories are your friend. Mass gainer shakes come in so handy. There are a few that are +2k calories a serving. Mix them with whole milk, or blend them with ice cream, and you'll have an easy extra 2500-3000 calories.
2. Add fats from nuts in as snacks throughout the day! A bag of nuts is like 1000 calories!
3. If you don't have food in your hand, go get something. You should be eating non-stop, and be constantly full.
4. Never go to sleep hungry. Before you go to bed at night, make sure that you have something to eat. Ideally, by the time you lay down, you should *feel* the stretchmarks developing. Your belly should be taught, like a drum, and you should be ready to split at the seams.
If you need any help, you can DM me whenever you like! I'm always down to fat chat and give advice. I love sharing my knowledge. Don't be shy 😉
Cheers! Happy gaining!
