Gaining

Heavy cream not working

Been on 500ml of heavy cream and 500ml of peanut butter smoothie for about a week now.
Losing weight does this take time to kick in?

Heavy Cream will make you lose weight unless you have carbs/sugar with it.

The magic formula is healthy fat (heavy cream) and sugar. fat by itself will put you into ketosis, and that will make you lose weight.

So make the cream into a milkshake or something. Make it as sweet as you can (another good weight gain habit anyway).

You might find using white corn syrup (actually clear) to work better than table sugar as it will dissolve and mix easier.

It's been my experience that yes, it takes sometime for your body to process the fat. Seems their is a delay of a few day, it's very sneaky. Shows up when you are least expecting it.

I was always told that eating to many sweets will make one diebetic, is this true? High froctose corn syrup is high in transfats and not good for the ticker.

That seems to change every week. They actually don't know what causes Type 2 Diabetes, but regular exercise, regardless of weight or diet seems to affect it greatly.

Typical Type 2 is the body failing to use insulin properly. The new medications are all directed toward helping the body use insulin better.

And yes, your body usually stores glucose in the liver for a while (days sometimes) before it releases it to become new fat.

I've used heavy cream to much success. Everything everyone has said is great advice. I'd add that, from what I've heard, your body can only digest so much so fast in a given time. So it might be better to take smaller amounts more frequently thru the day. I forget the numbers, but I heard something like your body can only process 1000 calories every 4 hours or 6 hours. Any excess is wasted.
Also, one of the biggest things that is frustrating but it is what it is, is that weight gain takes time. Lots of time for it to be noticeable. The scale can lie. As our weight can fluctuate daily by a decent amount. With 3500 excess calories a day to gain 1 lb. Which is in excess to the 2000-2500 you need just to exist. Not counting any walking, exercise, etc. Then It can take sometimes 10 or more lbs of gained fat to have it be noticeable. Even then, it's gonna be barely noticeable. Slow and steady wins the race with both weight gain and weight loss. Keep a journal of how many calories you take in a day. That can give an idea of how much weight you should theoretically be gaining. Then, just give it time. If you try to go to fast you can burn yourself out and give up. Keep those calories high each day and just keep at it. After a couple months it will definitely be noticeable. Hope that helps. Best of luck!
