Introduction

Kosen13, a vegetarian and lactose intolerant, shares his journey towards gaining weight in the reddit thread. He mentions how he had been skinny all his life and wanted to change that. He had to train himself to eat more and had to rely on peanut butter for calories.

The Challenges of Being Vegetarian and Lactose Intolerant

Kosen13 explains how his dietary restrictions made it difficult for him to gain weight. He ate large amounts of peanut butter, beans, and rice to increase his calorie and protein intake. He couldn't afford protein powder but managed to get around 100 grams of protein a day.

The Difficulty of Gaining Weight

Kosen13 emphasizes how gaining weight was not an easy task for him. His metabolism and eating habits prevented him from putting on weight. He had to constantly train and remind himself to eat more. Being skinny, he explains, is as difficult as losing weight for some people.

The Importance of Persistence

Despite the challenges, Kosen13 was determined to reach his weight gain goals. His persistence in training and eating paid off. He gained 22lbs in 4 months and was happy with his progress. He acknowledges the support and motivation he got from the reddit thread.

Encouragement for Others

It is important to remember that everyone's body is different and it is essential to find the right training and diet that works for you.
