Getting Fat

[mtajim]

One of my friend has lost lots of weight in his 3 months of treatment in hospital for a disease . Now he wants to gain weight , he has lost fat from his body . So what can be the best way to gain weight in such condition ?

Increase the amount of fat and carbs in his diet. It would probably also be good to do some exercising to increase muscle as well. No one wants their fat cells filled to bursting.

Really, it needs to be controlled. If he has lost weight then this is a good thing normally, but if it really does need to be regained then it needs to be done in a healthy way-not just by pigging out on chocolate and potatos all day long.

It is very important to make sure that he's working on muscle building as well as gaining the weight back. I don't meant "muscle building" like weight lifters strive for, but just so it doesn't all turn to fat.

Exactly. Even walking 20 minutes or half an hour a day would be helpful along with the eating. Just don't burn off all the calories. :)

I was admitted in the hospital before for how many weeks but I easily gain weight when my mom asked me to take vitamins and food supplement. I can see the good result even until now.

Self-discipline is very important. If you don't want to get fat, jogging is one of the best forms of exercise and it's good for the heart.

Thanks for all those advice , i would certainly tell my friends about this.

He should eat lot of fatty foods and to little bit of exercise so that the fats are guided well in his body. It ie very easy to get fat but very difficult to reduce weight. Your friend is very lucky I must say.

He should have milk and eat lots of nuts that will help him to put on more KGs there are people that would be happy to lose weight , it strange that this mans is not happy with it

I think I too have a similar problem. I have recently lost too much of weight due to metal anxieties and some other personal problems. Now regardless the amount of food I eat I still look thin. I mean its not about the weight but it kinda doesn't shows up on my body:confused:

Eating fatty foods is not healthy at all, he should eat normally, sleep 2 hours more than he normally would , and he shoul put the weight back on again. If he smokes he should reduce the number of cigarettes a day or just quit. This will help

What are the people here is advising? do you want this guy who just got sick to have clog arteries? if you want to add weight don't add it as fats although it is hard to add with out having fat but make sure majority of it is muscles. This lets you burn more calorie and still stay healthy with your arteries being clog by fats that people here are advising? consume fats but in moderation and the majority of fats should come form nuts and fish source they are high in HDL good cholesterol nit on those coming form meats which is high in LDL and saturated fats.
