After a year of caring for my diet I’m still stuck with BMI of 19 just like on day one - and my initial goal was getting to 23 in eight months, lmao. I tried everything from rice and pasta, dried fruit, lots of cheese to candies and cookies, if I only wasn’t allergic to nuts…

Getting to 2200 calories everyday was a chore, reaching 3000 took huge amount of effort, but I move too much and metabolise too fast for it to be enough. Nothing has changed, I only wasted my time on stressing about calories. Something tells me I must have intestinal parasites, because I cannot believe it otherwise. Becoming fat should be easy?? I guess it’s a miracle and I should be glad that I somehow grew A cups despite of this.

    I was like this until randomly I wasn’t, now I have to “eat well” and “not eat 500g of uncooked spaghetti in one sitting” :/

      I hope it’ll stop being like that for me too. I’d rather be worried about not getting too fat like a normal person, than do whatever I’m doing now.

        Yeah I prefer this as well, I think its good as long as you have “material” for your breast tissue and stuff, the actual fat distribution can come later and be just as good

        Though getting a meal thats easy to make and that you also love eating helps a lot, so maby get into cooking (would make you a better housewife too)

          I spend third of my day in the kitchen and don’t even let my mother or sister in to interrupt me - I’m already there.

      Knowing that hrt doesn’t work too well on skinny people stresses me out way too much. Few more months and I’ll start drinking corn syrup.

      That’s good isn’t it? Starting E with less fat is nice, the problem is staying there

        I guess, yeah. I went from 72kg to 80kg, but that was also around the time I stopped working out so idk.

    Just eat junk food idk. Icecream, cookies, pastries, pizza, chips. I can easily eat like 1200 calories per meal

      I have to cook almost everything by myself unfortunately, though ordering a pizza with a large soda everyday would be nice if I could… but at least I’ll try to stop caring about eating healthy after this failure.

        “eating healthy” is often a trap. You don’t need to completely exclude processed food and stuff if you want to gain fat and muscle, just make sure that most of your diet is healthy and includes veggies.
