Welcome back to Part 2 of the 13 Lessons Learned on my Weight Gain Journey 2015. Let’s just jump right in on where we left off, #6.
Sooooo, I got a lot of explaining to do, right? Well hopefully the content I have scheduled will make it up to you.
As 2015 comes to a close, I realized just how much I’ve learned this year in health and gains. I reached my highest weight ever and learned just how easy weight gain can be in theory. In the same breathe I learned how difficult it is to gain due to your mindset.

As I celebrate Thanksgiving and reflect on what I’ve done this year, I started thinking about how I reached major milestones in my fitness journey and gaining weight. Although I didn’t hit 130lbs, I hit 126 – 127lbs and with major curves. At this point in my journey, I know how to control the weight. If I “want” to gain extra weight I know the exact formula for my body to get the exact body that I desire.
To follow-up on my last post, here are my fitness goals I plan to accomplish with my fitness challenge. Oh and here’s a snapshot of my first two days of my challenge.
From Instagram
1. Weigh-in at 130lbs
2. 5 Regular Push-ups Straight
3. No Alcohol Consumption
4. Visible ABS
5. Lifting 20lbs Bicep Curls
5.
This challenge was really reserved for myself, just like my previous challenges I’ve been discussing on my blog or social media. But now that I’m back in the swing of things, I figured it would be good to include everyone else. I’m very careful about that because y’all remember how I failed at my first challenge? LOL!
Based off of the inbox messages, comments, and emails it’s safe to say that everyone is getting themselves ready to gain this weight or up their fitness game.

Skinny people have a fast metabolism and usually struggle with having the appetite to eat. I struggle with this every now and then, not often. I had to train my body to eat at certain times.

If you’re a person who is trying to gain weight, then I’m sure you’re aware that you need to eat three meals and snacks in between. Many of you are also trying to gain your weight as healthy as possible. Good for you! #SayNotoJunkFood
I figured it would be helpful to give you a list of items that were helpful for me to snack on that are pretty healthy. It’s hard to stay away from grabbing junk food but your body will thank you later.
Social media can either inspire you or make you moredepressed than before you created a profile. A gift and curse, indeed. Not too long ago, I wrote about “Fitness Hacks” to help people stay motivated on their fitness journey. What most people don’t tell you is that sometimes you can hit a wall on that journey. A mental wall. Sometimes you can become your own worst enemy with comparing yourself to someone else on their fitness journey.

Remember my “Welcome Back” post and I mentioned how I was gaining weight? Well here’s one of the follow up posts. So I’m sure most of you who are not following me on Facebook have no clue of where I am on my weight gain journey. I posted a pic back in March of the progress I made the first three months of the year. The progress was so fast it scared me.
