HI all sifus, I'm trying to gain healthy weight. Only 60kg for 1.8m, looks real skinny.

Here's my typical daily meal plan:

Morning:
1 small whole apple
2 wholemeal bread
peanut butter & butter spread (sometimes cheese)
50g Instant Organic Rolled Oats
10g Organic Pumpkin Kernel
10g Organic Sunflower Kernel
10g Sunmaid Raisin
250ml Soyabean
Sometimes 2 half boiled egg

Lunch
Economy rice (Veg + egg/tofu + meat/fish) OR
1 can tuna with 6 pcs of wholemeal bread

Afternoon Tea
10g Almond
10g Apricot Kernel
10g Green/black soyabean

Dinner
Economy rice/porridge (Veg + egg/tofu + chicken/fish) OR
Pasta with broccoli + chicken + white oyster mushroom

Supper
Depending on dinner time, could be light one like honey (250ml) or fruits OR
heavy one like more beans with soyabean

I think I'm taking >2500 kcal most of the days but in terms of protein, guess very hard to fulfill the 1g protein per pound of body weight (suggested by one site i visited - can't remember)

My workouts - Gym at condo (i don't know what are those called but the weight ranges from 3-7kg, using machine) and alternate with breastroke swimming almost daily basis.

Just started out this routine a month ago but not satisfied with progress cause only added 2kg (that's also not sure cause using different weighing machine).

Anyone can help to improve my plan? TKS icon_rolleyes.gif

Your diet looks OK other than too much carbs. Carbs don't build muscles.
I would suggest that you add more eggs to your breakfast.

Thanks, but I need the carbs for the calories. As for eggs, try to limit 2 per day. Think more than that is not so good right?

Calories is counted in a lab. Our body doesn't count calories, our body recognizes food as nutrients.
Carb provides energy while protein and fat are required in healing, growth and recovery of muscle tissue.
Even if you eat tons of carbs a day, your muscle still won't grow.

As for eggs, pls refer to the past postings. I had been eating 10 -15 whole eggs daily for more than a decade and I am still alive replying to your questions. wink.gif

ok, tks, can't imagine me eating 10 eggs everyday blush.gif

Our body don't count calories. 100g of lean meat contains approx. 20g protein.
1 whole egg is 5-7g protein depending on size.
Make sure you eat at least 20-30g protein 5X daily.
Add 1 tablespoon good oil to every meals.
Do not over eat carbs.

150g of protein? It's really tough for me. I'm achieving mostly around 100-130g only. And that is already quite costly in terms of $$ sad.gif

fruits high in carb, so if u want to eat fruit, dont at night. Unless your metabolism very high

it's ok with fruits (but not high protein one like durian), most just have simple carbs, absorbs easily
best if taken on empty stomach, before any main meal, unlike our traditional way of taking fruits after heavy meal cry.gif

breakfast u can eat eggs,tuna and salad. lunch eat vege, chicken, fish, meat and a little of rice if u want. Dinner dont eat rice or bihun if u can. If u still need it, eat very little of it. in between meals maybe can eat some low carb snack. I dont know what though. Maybe some peanuts or cheese. I'm also searching for what to eat in between main meal. Cause I feel hungry quite fast smile.gif

if u want to lose weight. reduce the carb intake. biscuit contains alot of carb especially the sweet one.
