I need to gain weight!!!
Since starting my new job I've lost a lot of weight.
I wake up between 5a.m. and 8a.m. depending on when I got off work. Go to the gym if I have time...which I usually don't. Eat a big breakfast before I go to work because when I get to work I don't have time to eat. I don't get off work til 10p.m-2a.m. so from
2p.m.-2a.m. I'm not eating very much at all.
The whole day my diet pretty much consists of grapefruit juice and tuna. Only because I have the packets of tuna and it's easy to take to work. I need A LOT more calories!
What healthy foods can I eat in 15 minutes that will help me gain weight and muscle?

Re: I need to gain weight!!!
carbs (rice and pasta). you can buy yourself some boiled rice and then microwave it and add tuna for a quick snack
nibble on nuts, seeds and dried fruit thoughout the day
should make you put on some weight.

Re: I need to gain weight!!!
You defo work waaaaaay too hard. Your going to have to prepare meals the night before, if you're not too tired, and take them in. Or you could try some of those "meals in a can", they're kinda like protein shakes. Don't you get many breaks working such long hours? How long's your lunch break?
Try eating something as soon as you wake up, but not too big. Then eat something after your workout and jst before work. That way you've got in two meals where before you'd have one. Have some sandwiches, shakes and a prepared meal while you're at work. So in that 12 hour period you've got you could eat every three hours - the prepared meal, two shakes and then the sandwiches.

Re: I need to gain weight!!!
I get breaks but 12-15 minute at a time. (Try choking down a meal that fast and see how you feel afterwards) We have a cafeteria but it takes about 8 minutes to get there and back...You do the math.
It's hard for me to eat a lot at a time because I'm used to eating 5-6 little things a day. So to train myself to eat an entire meal is VERY hard for me...my stomach gets full too fast.
It has to be something that doesn't have to be refrigerated. We do have microwaves but if it has to be microwaved for 5 minutes...I'm left with 10 minutes to eat.
Pasta is a good idea...I wish I could take protein shakes to work but I don't wanna drink a warm protein shake :gags:...Do they freeze?

Re: I need to gain weight!!!
You've gotta make sure you don't freeze them for too long because they lose their nutritional value if left alone too long and then they just become regular shakes.

Re: I need to gain weight!!!
cant u talk to the person in charge and tell them that only getting 15 minutes for a meal break is affecting ur health? cant u take longer breaks less frequently and have a decent meal in that time? who ever suggested nuts and dried fruit, thats a real good idea. u could get some chocolate protein bars, they would have calories and nutrients in them and u could eat them while u work along with the nuts. id also suggest taking fruit like apples. maybe things like that wont help u gain weight but they may be able to maintain ur weight. buy a thermos and put the protein shakes in there and then u can have it cold for a couple of hours. and then other days u could use the thermos for soup or other food u wanna keep hot/cold. if u get a good thermos they stay at the right temperature for longer than a couple hours tho
