[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 1734613, member: 365308"] I am working with a (training)client trying to gain after illness. He uses MyFitnessPal to encourage him to hit a kcal target though I think in your case a protein target and frequent snacking may help encourage a little release of insulin and hence more fat storage. Could you add in a little more carb also during this regaining phase? Cronometer or My Fitness Pal both do the same thing and you can set a weight gain target plus activity level to get soem targets. He has no appetite so finds these apps useful to remind him to eat frequently! Remember you will not gain muscle mass unless you are exceding what your body needs to maintain itself. As with losing weight stress management and sleep will come into play too in getting your body back to your 'fighting weight' whatever that turns out to be. [/QUOTE]
