Introduction

Weight gain and weight loss journeys are always unique and inspiring. One Reddit user anonymously shared their two-month weight gain journey, in which they gained nine pounds. This article follows the reader through the journey they shared on Reddit as they gained and monitored their new weight.

Starting point

The Reddit user started at a weight of 139 pounds and a height of 5'10". They decided to gain weight because they felt self-conscious about their skinny frame, often avoiding going to the beach or pool. They started eating more, but quickly realized that they needed to track their calorie intake to make the most out of their efforts.

The journey

For two months, the user consumed around 2,500 calories per day, with a focus on a high-protein diet. They also started a workout routine, with a focus on weight lifting. The user carefully tracked their progress, weighing themselves every few days, and noticed that they were gaining about 1-2 pounds per week. They also mentioned that, to make sure they were staying on track, they would eat even when they didn't feel hungry.

The results

After two months of dedication, the Reddit user gained nine pounds, weighing in at 148. The user shared that they felt more confident in their appearance, specifically mentioning a change in their face and legs. They also mentioned that they no longer feel self-conscious about going to the beach or pool.

Conclusion

This Reddit user's weight gain journey shows that with dedication and tracking, it is possible to make significant changes to your body. However, it is important to remember that everyone's journey will be unique, and what worked for one person might not work for someone else. If you're looking to gain weight or make any other changes to your body, it's important to consult with a medical professional or certified trainer to ensure that you're doing what's best for your body type and goals.
