This thread is really cool. I love the suggestions and, for the most part, they seem to be in line with what I would recommend. I can appreciate the Wheat free (gluten free) choice you made Ella. Excellent choice - wheat is so bad for us in any of it's forms! Generally, I think you need to eat more carbohydrates to gain weight. I've lost 20% of my body weight since April by eliminating wheat and cutting carbs to less than 100 grams per day, so doing the opposite to GAIN weight seems very logical. Eat whatever grains (other than wheat of course) and starches you like and eat more of them than usual. ...What a crazy, fun problem to have in our overweight world!?!

Thanks Kari. Yes its soo confusing. I truly don't know what foods exclude wheat and sodding gluten etc. The way I see it the only safe food right now is protein and or raw veggies - its soo painfully boring and gluten free bread tastes aweful! If I find the right topping it can be tolerable.
Im waiting for the results of an allergy test which will ultimately turn things upside down again potentially. But either way ive slimmed down big time and sadly lost some of the boobs I have gained along the way which is gutting.
I compleltely lack imagination when it comes to food too which doesn't help but im sure cook books will come in handy.
I hope to gain back at least 2-3 kgs and soon
