Title: I Need To Gain Weight Hi i want to gain weight and lose some fat around my stomach and chest area. I am a male 15 years old and i weigh 133 pounds. I cant put on any weight around my arms and legs but i have a big belly and a pretty big chest. i really want to lose it becuase its discusting. I wanted to know if you can give me a vegitarian diet becuase ive never eaten meat in my life. i run a half an hour 3 times a week and i do muscle training but i need to eat right. i would really appreciate it if you would recommend a diet for me. thank you Name: bob Date: Jun. 28th, 2001 Title: Re: I Need To Gain Weight Name: Kelly Date: Jun. 28th, 2001 Title: Re: I Need To Gain Weight You should consume about 1 and a half grams of protein per pound of body weight to gain muscle. unfortunately, sources of protein are usually, meat eggs, etc. but peanut butter is good, (16 grams of fat, but it's good fat that your body needs, so fret not) but I recommend protein shakes as your best "non meat" source. Designer protein shakes are the best that I've tasted, they have 17 grams of protein. 2 scoops with 12 ounces of milk is the best mix. I bought a shaker cup from GNC, 5 bucks. It marks the ounces, and I have a hand hels blender that mixes it with no clumps. YUMMY!!! Also string cheese is a lower fat source of protein. Those "smart ones" eals by weight watchers have unbelievable amounts of protein, low fat, but most of them have some sort of meat. But give those a try, they may make veggie friendly meals. Hope this helps!! Good Luck!!! Don't forget weight training will help lose the fat, too!! The more muscle you gain, the more fat you will burn.
