Lifestyle tips

Is there a way aside from counting calories to make sure I’m eating enough to gain?

To "make sure", counting is the only way to do it.

But you might find that shifting the way that you think about food makes overeating more spontaneous.

For example, if you typically think about what food is available or what would be easy to make, you might find that nothing sounds good. If instead you consider what sounds good, then eat that, you might eat more, in general.

Just increase the amount of food you eat make a rough mental image of how big all the food is and then just add more

Eat more move less. Liquid calories butter in all your food. Think of it like how you would any meat you want fat and marbled that's what you're doing. You eat more than you move and you keep your body temperature cool. Take lots of baths spoil yourself. You'll get hungrier to the point you can't really tolerate less and you'll become more food motivated over time. I speak from experience

Eat only when you're awake, but eat the whole time you're awake. Except when you're on the bathroom, that's gross.

I would build up to that because most people cannot do that. Plus, you need to give your digestive system a break. Hard to have an appetite when you are severely constipated.

Yes, make sure you eat all the time. Literally, just push yourself to eat more and more. Eat large meals every two hours, in between you need to snack all the time, a lot of peanuts and nuts, for example. After a while it becomes a routine and you will blow up in no time.
