[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2341579, member: 365308"] Do the opposite to what I tell my overweight clients to do: eat frequent snacks e.g. spoon of peanut butter every time you think of it or a nibble of cheese , big spoon of greek yoghurt or chicken drumstick skin on, packet of pork scratchings?etc. so that your body doesn't have to dip into your fat supplies and don't be afraid to have a little carb with it but with an increased basal to allow your body to store it as fat and muscle. As you know if you don't do that you will pee it out. My own rule is to have 30g carb or less per meal not that I am trying to gain weight but this does at least allow me not to rock my blood sugar boat too much! If you ever watched Supersize SuperSkinny the 'skinnies' gained littler amounts than the fatties lost but then the extra pounds will really show in a good way and hopefully you will feel better with a healthier immune system too.
