Calories in, calories out. I know this because I struggle to gain weight, quite the opposite problem most folk have. If I eat over 3k calories, I gain weight.

Calories in, calories out. I know this because I struggle to gain weight, quite the opposite problem most folk have.
If I eat over 3k calories, I gain weight. If I eat less than 3k, I lose it.
Not tracking my calories and quitting my workouts due to wisdom teeth extraction and a nasty sinus infection turned chronic has cost me 20lbs.
20lbs I worked very, very hard to gain. Consuming half a gallon of whole milk a day, forcing myself to eat even when I had no appetite, etc. Working out. I felt great and looked better than I had in awhile. All gone now, back to square one.
My goal is to get over this sinus infection, (black plague, whatever it is) continue counting calories, as well as exercising, to put that weight back on and then some.
- return0 10y agoTime is your friend. After 30 it becomes a lot easier :)
- coldtea 10y agoTime is not exactly a friend. After 30 parent might have the opposite problem...
- return0 10y agoits a bad friend
- kpil 10y agoNot to mention 40! I must say that the bends in the graph is very noticeable.
- durzagott 10y agoNot always true. I'm now 40 and still struggle to keep my weight up. Same as OP I have to consume a large number of calories throughout the day, eating every two hours. If I let my guard down I slide back to 145 lbs within a few weeks and have to climb the mountain all over again. Age has yet to cure me of this.
