Top 18 ways to gain weight.

I know you want to manage your weight and most likely lose some. I created this list so you can identify personal behaviors that cause weight gain - some you may not be aware of.

This list seems very tongue-in-cheek. Perhaps it is, but these top 18 ways are serious - they work effectively and quickly. Adopting these habits guarantee that you’ll gain weight and have a really tough time losing it. And if you already have some of these habits, you can change them into their opposite positive and lose weight.

1. Overeat.
2. Eat foods you’re allergic to. Most common: wheat, dairy, soy, sugar.
3. Eat junk food and fast food.
4. Fill up on starches and sugars. Become a starch-arian.
5. Use food to manage challenging emotions.
6. Sit around. Increase your screen time.
7. Stay away from exercise.
8. Stay indoors.
9. Never develop creative interests.
10. Drink lots of liquid calories –sodas, alcohol, juice, etc. They count double or triple a chewed calorie.
11. Drink diet sodas and beverages sweetened with aspartame.
12. Avoid eating meat, poultry, and seafood.
13. Clean your plate.
14. Eat only one meal a day.
15. Skip breakfast.
16. Avoid eating eggs.
17. Yo-yo diet.
18. Stay up late.

Please post your questions and comments and I'll respond.


Have a terrific June and July,
