Hello there. I'm Tiffany. I have been thin and petite/danty my whole life with a fast metabolism.
I'm wanting to gain weight; I wasnt quite sure on how many calories I need til recently. I'm 70 pds and 5 ft 2 inches in height and 22 years old. And want to gain some pounds, I only work three days a week in retail (help out in stockroom for 2 3 hrs a day) 3 days a week then rest of the day, Im mainly standing or walking some. So not Pandora Outlet Store sure how many calories that would burn then 4 days Im off and dont do much. I do weigh training on Saturday due to the calories Im consuming. I'm consuming between 1,500 to 2,000 a day right now. I do this by foods such as pot pies, hot pockets, rice and veggies with pieces of chicken, biscuits, bread, and random Pandora Outlet stuff like that. Also drinking the Boost Plus with 360 calories in a small 8 oz. I drink those aleast once to twice a day. Any suggestions? Im going to doctor soon too for a physical. thanks
At a height of 5'2" and 70lbs you are SEVERELY underweight with a BMI (body mass index) of 12.8. Normal is between 18.5 24.9. You definitely need to gain some weight. For a fast metabolism you can definitely afford to eat more calories than the average person, especially at your weight too. Right now you should Pandora Clear Pave Heart Dangle Charm be eating between 2000 3000 calories. I would start at the low end and try to work your way up to eating more calories per day. Drinking the boost is a great way to add calories. good for you!!! You could probably add some more fatty foods into your diet, but you still need to go for the foods that are higher in mono and polyunsaturated fats rather than saturated fats and trans fat (also known as trans fatty acids). Listing weight is great exercise to increase muscle mass, burn calories more efficiently, and add weight. Maybe you should try adding some other exercise such as swimming or biking. Just light work outs though. I would tell the overweight to go for a more intense cardio workout program, but for you we aren't looking to burn extra calories and lose weight, we are looking to gain muscle mass and weight. You also need to encorporate more protein in your diet. A good way to get more protein and fat in your diet is meats. not just chicken, but steaks, ground beef, etc. And you don't have to go for the super lean cuts either. don't be afraid of the more fatty slices (although I don't recommend those where half of the cut is covered with white fat. yuck!)
When you see your doctor ask him about being check for hyperthyroidism. Hyperthyroidism Pandora Clear Pave Heart Dangle Charm can make a person lose weight, or make it hard for them to gain weight, because your metabolism is in overdrive essentially. Are you experiencing any other symptoms such as: heat intolerance, excessive sweating, fast heart rate, diarrhea, jitteriness, etc (anything that indicates that maybe your body is working overtime)?
