Gaining

On a budget is going to seriously limit you.
You actually have to eat more to gain weight and that takes money.
Just thinking about it is telling me you aren't sure what you want to do.
If you go into this with a halfhearted attitude you don't have the fortitude to actually commit do doing it.

I was just being honest and you did ask the question to begin with.
You didn't like my comment because it wasn't what you wanted to hear so you took it to be discouraging when it wasn't meant to be.
Don't be so sensitive.

There is plenty of info on heavy cream and its usage and I am sure you have already read all that so me reiterating on that subject isn't going to be helpful.
I am not here to argue with a 22 year old and I am pretty sure you would think my tips wouldn't have merit anyway.

I've had fantastic results with heavy whipping cream. It's also quite affordable. I buy about 12 quarts per week, and that only costs me just over $37.

If you decide to go that route, just be to not overdo it. The body can only absorb up to 1,000 calories of fat in one sitting, which is about 10 fluid ounces of heavy cream. It also takes the body about 2 hours to digest the fat.

I had a very tough time when I first started gaining with heavy whipping cream. I was drinking too much at once, and it would make me nauseous. I had a hard time keeping it down, and I gave up on more than one occasion.

Since I started limiting myself to 10 fluid ounces at a time, at least 2 hours apart, gaining weight with heavy cream has become very easy. The nausea and gastrointestinal discomfort are completely gone. It's definitely worth a try.
