Trying to gain weight

you sound like me. I am about the same height, maybe 5' 3" and I weigh 130. That is the right weight for me, I am very small boned. I went through two periods of times, where my diet did not change, I was eating a good amount of food, and yet I would lose a few lbs. I did not know why, and each time, I watched it, carefully, weighing a few times a week, and I just increased some carbs (some of which were not good for me, I don't advise that) and I was not sure what foods to increase, so I will read the other responses, if this happens to me again. But I have been where you are, just did not have quite that much to gain, I would lose like 4-6 lbs, over a month and a half or so. When I mentioned it on a doctor viist, about something else, she said, as long as it was stabilizing at that time (which it was by the time I got to see the doc) and it wasn't like 10 lbs in a month, she would not worry. I still have no idea why this sometimes happens, the first time I think was stress, but the second time, I do not know. I have acid relux, so when they put me on Nexium I noticed I gained it back after a short time. Good luck to you!!

Gee, wish I had this problem. I'm the other way. Nothing works for me to reduce the pounds. Try eating peatnut butter.

I am 5'8" and weigh 123. I am trying to gain weight as well. I don't know how to gain weight and follow an appropriate diabetic diet. Is there any (serious) help out there?

How much Alcohol sugar is in the candy ?

Gain muscle, mix your cardio and weight training. Also, drinking your calories, with protein shakes with added fruit. Don't replace your meals, drink in addition too, like a snack

Im liking the surger free candies omg they are good

I too have that problem of retaining or gaining a few pounds. At 5'9" and 145 lbs; I feel I am far too thin and along with the lack of weight comes a lack of strength. Dr. doesn't seem at all concerned about it; but I am.

Id love to gain some weight back too i lost too much when i got diabetes :( now i look like a crackhead
