I know this has probably been asked a million times…
…but here I go, anyway.
So I have a very dear friend— one of my best— and she’s had a rough go of life. I won’t go into details, but she is now extremely underweight (not by her own volition; she is actively trying her best).
She’s an otherwise healthy woman (aged 40), who is very athletic, has a physically demanding job (she’s an LMT in the state of California), and she has two young children that run around with her a LOT.
She eats healthily; we live together and her diet is pretty basic but generally whole foods. She eats a lot of fish and rice especially, but she’ll eat pretty much anything.
I digress.
Anyway, what is a decent, HEALTHY way for her to gain weight? Working out isn’t the issue; she loves being active. But does anybody have any advice on how to help her just put on the weight she really needs.
INFO: she’s like 5’1, and weighed in at 98lb. this morning.
I’m not a professional, but I’m new here and I was hoping maybe someone in the internet ether would have some good advice on helping her get back her “winter coat”, as she so casually puts it. 🤷🏾😂👍🏽
Please, mods, don’t ban this. I’m not asking for life-changing stuff, just maybe some little tips some people who have been in the same spot that may be helpful.
