Fattening others

2seatsalways:
Looking for solutions on how to have my partner still be able to gain, as healthy as possible, while pre-diabetic. If this brings her A1C down that's even better.
I know it's doable, but looking for anyone who has been in this scenario before and have anything that worked for them.

Munchies:
It's best to gain slower and avoid a carb/sugar based gain. Try to focus on healthy, high fat foods like avocados, nuts, and high fat fish.

I swear I saw you type this before. Thank you for responding. I read you studied biology? So she should limit soda and have like treat days? A day of sweets and sugar maybe once a week?
Would gain shakes be ok?

Greentrees8733:
My first thought is that—since pre-diabetes is reversible—maybe just wait until treatment is done?

Cactusrager:
Thank you Munchies

Munchies:
I did study biology. I'm also a diabetic and an ex-gainer. So I have a combination of study and experience under my belt. And I often repeat my advice because people often ask the same questions.

Definitely limit soda. The average can of soda has a staggeringly high amount of sugar. As for when to have sweets, I'll let you guys figure that out. Having a cheat day is fine, but even then, don't overdo it.

For me, I have sweets any day I want them, but not that many. For example, I wanted chocolate yesterday, so I grabbed a back of semi-sweet chocolate chips and got a handful. I took my time to savor it and I was happy.

Weight gain shakes are fine. However, don't make them too sweet, and make sure she limits the rest of her sugar intake for the rest of the day. It's also a good idea not to make too much. A lot of people forget that when you increase your calories, you also increase everything else.

For example, if a serving size of something has 10 g of sugar, and you eat three servings, you just had 30g of sugar. If you aren't reading the nutrition label now, I advise you to start.

I am also diabetic, but I have realized that eating three servings of a food with 10 grams of sugar per 100 grams is not the same as eating 1 serving of 30 grams of sugar per 100 grams. It gives the feeling that the higher the concentration of sugar per 100 grams it rises more, it has happened to me

Munchies:
It may have a lower concentration, but that still adds up. I know a lot of diabetics who will gorge themselves on low sugar foods and get confused when they feel like crap.

It goes up less than 30, I understand that if it goes up the same it is because the pancreas no longer works. My pancreas generates insulin but it is difficult for it to use it, and I have reached a glycosylated hemoglobin level of 10, now I am at 6.
I've also noticed that eating whole wheat bread in the freezer raises sugar less.
