Gaining

Heavy cream is very sneaky

It's weird, I've had pretty much 500ml-1L each day for the last three days and I've also been adding dextrose to help with the fat absorbsion. And I've noticed just today that my thighs feel bigger, it's probably mind over matter but I want more smiley

I think the testimonies of this many people is good enough for any one to give it a try. I have tried gaining several times in my life but my metabolism is just so high that I've never been able to break 150 lbs. But this time I am more motivated than ever, I have an encourager that shares my dream of me getting to a super sized weight one day, a fattening diet I can stick to, and now I am going to incorporate heavy cream into my diet. 150+ lbs here I come! Haha

-delayed effects of the cream have definitely been noted (aftermath effect) - looking forward to how much more....


What is the reason for this "delay"?

Had a flu the past 36 or so hours. I swear double cream is the only thing saving my gaining.

I havent done plain cream much, but I certainly have gorged on ice cream quite often. A new discovery is making nutella fondue, which is just nutella and heavy cream. But usually I just eat the Nutella out of the jar.

So I did the math and I have to be off..
Does heavy whipping cream really have 3200 calories in 1 litre?! That seems insane. But my math isn't wrong...

That's correct. 3000 per quart. 3200 per litre.

I can't guarantee this is true for all territories, but here in the U.K, whipping cream has 3,480 calories per litre, whereas double (heavy) cream has 4,670.

I think this is correct. Slightly different product over there than in the states.

So, in theory if I drank one litre a day, that would be all calories in a day I need and then some, so anything after that would be extra calories? This seems almost too good to be true! Its hard to take a ton in at once, but I imagine you'd get used to it.


There are limits to how much and how fast your digestive system can process and absorb any nutrient, fat included. While it's almost certainly possible to drink a litre of double cream in a day, you will find that only a proportion will be absorbed and it'll almost certainly give you a stomach upset.

I recommend you take it slow at first, being careful not to drink so much in one go as to overwhelm your digestive system.
