Gaining weight is as
difficult as losing it for some people. It’s all about calorie intake and
exercise. Yes I mean exercise, however I will be focusing on the healthier
foods you can eat on your weight gain journey.
Strictly homemade
The reason why I said homemade it is because store bought you won’t know what exactly they put the amount of calories you will be taking.
Tip: add full fat Greek yogurt to any
smoothie this increases the protein content.
Best snack ever when
trying to gain a bit of weight. There are different varieties of nuts how swell
is it. You can also add them to your smoothies.
My personal favorites: Peanuts (groundnuts) and Walnuts
3.Steak and rice
You still need a solid meal as well. This is your everyday meal. However you can increase your rice portion and have more carbs as well as the meat for protein which ever you do is the way. The rice must be brown rice as it is healthier and not processes. My favorite African brown rice recipe includes adding peanut butter to the rice making it peanut butter rice.
4.Sweet potato
For your tea or supper this is amazing as it is filling. You can choose how many you want on your plate it also depends on size. If it is fairly big I would recommend just 2. You can choose to mash them and have mashed sweet potatoes for dinner.
5.Cheese (cheddar)
One of my personal
favorites. Cheese can be added to anything. So many meals. For breakfast you
may have toast, egg, cheese and lettuce. Or just cheese and egg plus any meat
you would like. Cheese burger.
- Tip: try have a fruit after every meal. As this is still a healthy journey.
