Not Winning !! Need Charlie Sheen lessons.........

I`ve never needed to gain weight Ron (guessing maybe this is a first for you too?), but I can tell you from first hand experience that Beer will definitely work! Sure you`ll have to pee a lot, but think of it as keeping your prostate functioning properly.

[Poorboy]

Well at least i won`t worry about you being able to eat, you might also try drinking an extra few Ensure everyday .. and some Jelly Doughnuts

[Joe Metlow]

I must say I like your style Mr.Ron!

we certainly have to do dinner some time soon pal.

Ronkh- Glad you`re able to eat stuff you like. And/but I wouldn`t just indiscriminately eat [crap] to just gain weight for the sake of it` eat nutritious stuff in quantities based on objective determinants. Messing with your blood sugar and gaining bodyfat won`t do anything good IMO. I *assume* you`ve been megadosing fishoil throughout this whole ordeal...

Are you able to do any exercise at all? I figure it`s in that "everybody`s situation is different" category, but I can`t help but think that it would be beneficial.

When it comes to Protein/Weight Gain powders, note that not everybody can...comfortably...digest many of them, and some have way too much sugar/etc. to really be healthy.

You lost me there! How would drinking beer and/or frequent urination help keep the prostate functioning properly? If anything, I thought that beer consumption is inversely correlated with prostate health.

I hear so much, uhm...goofy stuff...presented as FACT that I`m even worse at spotting humor than I used to be!

To go along with the weight gain powder idea, you can doctor them up to make them more tolerable. Like meal replacement shakes and protein powders, most taste like garbage straight. However, I found by adding fresh or frozen berries along with either cow`s milk or almond milk instead of water, many are actually tolerable. It also boosts the calorie count as well.

Also, muscle mass is more dense than fat and will produce bigger gains when trying to put on weight. Are you to a point where short walks or a gentle spin on an exercise bike is possible? Maybe some light activity to prevent the loss of additional muscle and maybe restore some that was lost might work? If nothing else, it might make you more hungry so you can pound back more of that delicious looking food you posted.

Yeah, mixing the powders with milk is a huge improvement over using water, especially if you use whole milk.

Jen has a "healthier" alternative than ensure or boost...... It`s pretty much organic and good for ya......

That said, Dr said make my own milkshakes daily with good ice cream, healthy protein powder & fruit. (Like I used to do for Ryan)

Funny, my headaches went down in # quite a bit since I got sick, so I was wondering about taking up drinking. Doc says "NO"

Nope

No
supplements of any sorts.

Just good old fashioned food.
