Well this one prolly won't garner me too many fans. I am having a difficult time gaining weight. For a while there I was sitting in the mid 140s. I have been eating a ton and drinking more beer (a secret of sumo wrestlers) and I am only up to 161. For the past two weeks, every time I weigh myself, I am within three pounds. I use the scale in the factory, so I know it has to be pretty accurate. I think a big obstacle for me is the type of weight I am trying to gain. The idea is not to get fat, but to get big. I am running, lifting, eating a ton, and drinking protein shakes. I know some people say that you don't need as much protein as those drinks have, but after a hard workout you feel a lot better with a nutrient rich beverage. I could eat more, except there are some days already that I am about at my intake maximum. I need to figure something out. I think another big issue I have is that a little bit of exercise wakes up the calorie furnace that is my metabolism and it pretty much doesn't matter how much I eat, none of it is going to stick. Its a curse really. On top of that, after my run today, one of my toenails was bleeding through my sock. Ha! Weren't expecting to read that today were you! Hahaha! I'm sorry. Real runners will tell you this stuff happens. I think its pretty gross. Oh well.
P.S. We're in the money now folks. Keep coming back.
