For many women, trying to gain weight is not only daunting, but extremely challenging. Yes. I did say gaining weight & women in the same sentence.

With all of the weight loss programs and regimes out there, underweight or ultra lean women who want to gain a few healthy pounds may found it challenging to do so because 1) there isn't a lot of information out there for women and proper weight gain resources or support groups and 2)the information available is more geared towards men and body building.

But rest assured that you are not alone in your struggles and can gain weight despite poor eating habits, an overactive metabolism, and genetics.

The major three MUST DO'S that will ensure a healthy weight gain is to 1) believe that you can transform your body despite of your past failures or what other people have told you about your body.

Stop criticizing yourself and comparing your other body to other women. While this may be hard to do, you need to get into the habit of loving your body for what it can do instead of concentrating on its so called flaws. Remember the law of attraction. What you focus on will continually persist. So focus on health and enhancing your body without pressure.

Finally, meditate on what you want your body to look and feel like. Take 5-15 min per day visualizing what weight you want to be. Again, the law of attraction. Continually be in a spirit of gratefulness for the health of your body (no matter what state it may be in).

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Center you diet around whole grain based foods. Add fiber/folic acid to your diet and consume a high quality vitamin 1-2 times daily.
    Drink 3-4 glasses of milk per day. Studies have shown underweight women are at high risk for brittle bones and osteoporosis later on in life. This means that you are calcium and vitamin D deficient.

  2. Step 2

    Consume more good carbs like potatoes dressed up with your favorite toppings (cheese, sour cream, tomatoes, ect). Focus on dressing up all of your foods with fresh fruit and seasonings.

    Instead of focusing on calorie intake, focus on putting the right foods in your body that you are deficient in.

  3. Step 3

    Don't skip meals. Aim to eat between 4-6 meals per day. Lunch and dinner should be the largest meals of the day. The others should be filled with high calorie healthy snacks like nuts, figs, and nutrient rich fruit smoothies.

    Add weight bearing excersise to your day. Opt to work out 30 min 3-4 times a week. Look for resistance and core training videos and books as well as yoga and pilates to increase flexibility in limbs a

    Increase your omega 3 fatty acid or fish oil intake. Eat more foods high in omega 3 as it will decrease deficiencies in the body and make for a more curvier appearence.
