Looking for a change and I've found it!
My surgery date is Sep 17th! With Dr. Jimerson! I'm so excited! Had my consultation today, I have to gain 20lbs :/ ... I've already bought ensure plus, & I ate a whole lot of bs today. Almost feel nauseated cause I know I ate more then normal, but I can do this! Plus my surf date is right around the corner!
Any gain weight tips?
I'm new here, but I found who I wanted my Dr. to be through this helpful site so I thought why not share my story!

Hi Daisy, welcome and thanks for sharing your journey with us. Have you tried protein shakes to gain weight? You can get many different kind, some help to lose weight and are low in fat/calories. However, certain body builders also use certain types to gain weight.
Have you gained any weight yet or do you still have 20lbs to go?
The easiest way to look at it, I find, is by doing the numbers. It takes 3000 calories to loose/gain 1lb of weight. Your body will use between 1500-2500 calories, just to function each day and any exercise you do will also use up calories. So you need to be taking in more than you are using, in order to gain weight.
Was Dr. Jimerson able to give you any advice on gaining weight?
Well just keep drinking the protein and eating higher calorie food, hopefully you'll meet your goal weight in time.
