whichwayisup Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Join a gym and start building up muscle. You need to bulk up abit, without getting fat. Talk to your DR about it too. The other thing is, your girlfriend should love you the way you are. Has she actually said that she doesn't like skinny guys or is this what you feel she MAY think? Talk to her, it seems she is doing something to make you feel this way. Link to post Share on other sites
Dont-Dream-It Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Hon, I'm assuming you were skinny when your Girlfriend started goign out with you - why would she suddenly stop liking you, if you've always been this way? And if YOU really want to change then change for YOU. I'm doing weight-loss at the minute but I'm doing it for no one but me. Tash Xx PS - Skinny guys are hotter, in my opinion! =P Link to post Share on other sites
clandestinidad Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Protein grows muscle dont overdo it though, b/c it can totally throw off how your body consumes energy, and lead to organ problems. Too many companies and 'trainers' dont handle this muscle/mass building very safely, so be careful to not fall into a trap that will harm you. You can usually tell its unhealthy if it promises to do it in a short time span (like a few weeks) I was formerly a nutrition major, so I dont know everything. But I do know that protein should be increased, but carbs should be as well. B/c thats what your body burns first, and if youre burning off all of your protein, then it wont build your muscle. Fats and veggies too...obviously. If you want to gain weight, make sure youre consuming more calories than youre burning, duh....sorry to state obvious things, but I dont know how much you know about stuff like this. I'll think about this some more and maybe I'll be more help Link to post Share on other sites
MWC_LifeBeginsAt40 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Do you have good posture? Do you slouch over when you walk or stand or sit? Hold your head up and walk around with confidence in the way you look. A big part of physical attraction is attributed to how you carry yourself. If you walk with confidence in your appearance most people will see that before they notice how skinny you are, and lanky probably wouldn't enter their minds. Link to post Share on other sites
WoWaddict Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 eat a well balanced diet, with lots of carbs, aka breads and pasta. I would also take daily vitamins for men NOT steriods. they have vitamins for men who want to build up muscle. work out, exercise. Link to post Share on other sites
clandestinidad Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I dont recommend breads/pastas for gaining weight....your body will burn it fast. The body first burns carbs, then protein, then fat. I eat breads/pasta AAALLLL the time, and I'm 5'6" 108-110lbs....so carbs wont put on weight Link to post Share on other sites
