QuestionI very recently came off a mild case of anorexia - I wouldn't eat at all for 3 or 4 days, then I'd have something small like toast or a sandwich. Anyway, I've basically got no body fat or muscle tone left - as kindly put by my mother, "my ass has dissappeared". I'm 16, I'm going on holiday soon and unfortunately, am strapped for cash something awful. So, can you give me any tips for putting weight back on safely with very little cash availible?
Answer Ideally, one should not have to spend extraordinary amounts on healthy food. Only the people selling products might say otherwise.
No food will increase muscle tone; you have to do that yourself with activities. Simple brisk walking or swimming will do just fine.
Be careful about trying to gain weight the wrong way. Empty calories like fats and sugars aren't healthy and the weight will be 'fat', that slows your metabolism and causes more problems than benefits.
Add snacks of dried fruits, milk shakes made with nonfat dairy or soy products, with a banana or other fruit tossed in - a handful of nuts a few times a week - an extra bowl of cereal before bed - there are lots of good ways to do it and it shouldn't cost more than what you'd normally spend on groceries!
