I've been 125lbs since I was 16...so hard to gain weight
That's pretty impressive! I can think of a lot of people who would like that problem. What kind of workouts do you do? Are you more into bodybuilding, power lifting, cardio?
Just a few pushups and that's it haha I really hate the gym and would rather spend hours walking outside! It's good I live in a sunny state
That totally makes sense. Clean air and sunshine! Do you think you don't get enough calories each day? I know that if you don't eat enough, you don't gain weight!
It might be...but I always eat until I'm full but at the same time, I don't like to over eat just so I can gain weight. I thought working out was going to be the solution but I guess not!
Hmm, that's a tough one for sure since working out will build muscles which will help you lose MORE weight when you're not exercising. It's a cycle!
DO you think I should start using protien shakes?
Not sure on that. I know lots of people use them, but I've read that some contain harmful substances like arsenic and lead. I guess if you checked the labels really carefully it might work!
Maybe I'll do that! You would think I'd just be happy with being healthy but this world has just put so many standards of beauty that I feel I need to fulfil
Ugh, I get it. Perceptions of what is beautiful and what's not have changed so much over time.
