Sorry to hear your having trouble.
My friend had the same problem and a endocrinologist solved it.

Well, I was thinking maybe my upcoming trip to Disney will help, but I'm sure all the walking will burn it off.

What's that?

sad but true! Seriously though, what about lifting weights to build muscle?...as long as you're eating the calories to replace the ones you lose doing the actual work out...this might work. I also love Balance Bar Gold Chocolate Mint Crunch...yummy!

OMG!

You know not a day goes by without something putting me into gales of laughter on DIS and this was today's post!

Get some sour cream and onion chips with some dip, man, some beef jerky, some peanut butter. Get some Haagen-Dasz ice cream bars, a whole lot, make sure chocolate, gotta have chocolate, man. Some popcorn, red popcorn, graham crackers, graham crackers with marshmallows, the little marshmallows and little chocolate bars and we can make s'mores, man. Also, celery, grape jelly, Cap'n Crunch with the little Crunch berries, pizzas. We need two big pizzas, man, everything on 'em, with water, whole lotta water, and Funyons.



Silly I'll give you some of mine for your birthday when I see you

Lately I've found that taking protein supplements, I do jello shots made with Pro Stat, and a diet high in carbs/fat/fiber has worked the best for me. I physically cannot eat enough protein and carbs to meet my daily requirements. I'm on Peritoneal Dialysis and carry 2 liters of fluid in my stomach/peritoneal cavity 24/7. The fluid makes me feel full and bloated, so even though I like food, after a few bites, I'm done.

Muscle Milk smoothies made with Haagen Daz and the frozen berry blend from Costco are good too.

Oh my friggin' God, now that is the single funniest line I've read on the DIS in a long time. I'm STILL laughing!

Stay at home mom's are fatter than women that work. If you work, quit your job and stay home and you'll gain weight in no time at all.

Damn it....I was just going to say take up Pot Smoking. Not only will you gain weight but eating the food will taste soooo good.

Already had my thyroid checked. That was the first thing they did. Everything was normal.

Welcome to my club! I don't have any advice but to say I've just learned to deal with the fact that finding clothes that fit me is frustrating beyond belief unless I shop in the Girls department. My last doctors appointment, it was well noted to me I was underweight, but I was otherwise healthy (BP, cholesterol, various lab tests including thyroid), so don't fret too much about it. If you are otherwise healthy, I'd say don't worry about it either.

My youngest DS has acid reflux and has issues with maintaining his weight. The best thing I have found for weight gain is Benecalorie. You can find it on Walgreens' website (I havent found it anywhere else). It has 300 calories in it and can be mixed into soft foods. I mix it with his cereal. I have also put it into smoothies, mashed potatoes, pancake batter, and yogurt- it's a little over an ounce so it mixes in pretty easily. It hasn't caused any issues with his reflux and he hasn't said anything about the taste (keep in mind he's three so he's not a real food critic- but he's picky like any three year old). I think its made mostly of sunflower oil. If you have question let me know.

when my aunt needed to gain weight she ate lots of avacados

what about work at home mom's? Because I work at home and and I can't sop losing weight. Hmmmm...... maybe I should tell my husband that I need to quit running the daycare. Yeah that's my excuse, Honey I really need to quit working because stay at home mom's are fatter than mom's that work. LOL! He'd get a real kick out of that and say yeah right! Whateva LADY get back to work!

Okay, the doc switched me to Wellbutrin for my anxiety. As long as I don't have major side effects, I'm thinking this might help me gain my weight back, no?

I hate shopping in the little girls dept because I have 4 children. I already shop there for my two daughter y'know? I like to look like a mom...well not like a MOM but like a hip older 20's younger 30's chick with children. My doctor has done quite a bit of testing on me and I do have some health problems. It is just SO irritating for me that EVERY time that I go in there that he yells at me and tells me that I need to gain some weight or that I am much to skinny. One time he told me I needed to fatten up like I was the Christmas turkey or something! I know that when I go bac in in 2 weeks he will yell at me again b/c I have lost ANOTHER 5 lbs......

It irritates me when people say to me "You need to gain weight. You're too skinny.". Would you walk up to someone and say "You need to lose weight. You're too fat" OMG, that would go over well.

Good luck. I hope it works.

I personally lost weight, and A LOT of it on Wellbutrin...It helped me quit smoking, but took away any appetite. Hoping it is the opposite for you.
