How to gain 10 pounds. Or have your friends drop their pants.
The right way.
Or the personal trainer way.
Beverly Morris, the supergal who’s allowed us into her breast cancer recovery event, now has a new challenge.
Listen to this . . . .
Yes. The plastic surgeon said he needed fat to harvest before he would schedule her reconstructive surgery. And Beverly doesn’t have any. Poor thing.
I know. The easy answer would be for all of us to donate our fat.
A win-win right?
Charitable soul that I am,
I marched to her doctor’s office and dropped my tights to reveal black Sharpie circles around the back of my thighs.
“Take all you need. And more. Please.”
After politely telling me to pull up my tights — and before calling the Athens police, her doctor said that he could only use Beverly’s fat for her body.
What’s up with that?
So I baked her chocolate chip cookies.
See how much I love the rower. You can’t hide that kind of love.
In three weeks, Beverly heads back to the doctor to see if she’s ready.
What would be your advice to an uber-healthy eater to gain 10 pounds in three weeks?
Yes, three weeks not three days.
Cokes? And milkshakes!
Hmmmmm….eat a lot of carbs, especially ice cream. Or lots of potatoes and cheese……if she HAS to gain weight, she might as well have fun doing it. She’ll probably have to stop exercising for a while though, which she probably won’t like.
I know Claudia — wouldn’t it be fun? I’ll have to get her to post what she does eat. Not to speak for her — but I will :). She said that she plans on eating more of foods she wouldn’t normally eat. The pastas, etc. But she wants to eat healthy, not a lot of processed foods, not a lot of fast foods.
A good chocolate milkshake. Oh My.
I think she should take up writing. Nothing will drive a person to hit the sauce, chocolate, and/or chips faster. Unless that’s just me, of course. Wait, it’s not just me, is it???
That’s a great suggestion, Karen! Beverly is a writer at heart — And speaking for myself, it is hard to sit all day in front of the screen without crunching on something.
Definitely load up on the carbs. Hanging at Dairy Queen works for me. (What am I saying!!!)
Dairy Queen. You can’t beat it whether trying to gain weight or not.
Bless her heart. How ever she does it, I hope it works like a charm!
I feel like I have a wealth of information on this topic since I’ve successfully done it myself… but three weeks. Can she lay off the exercise and add on some good fats?
Oh! Brookside treats! That was my downfall…

I googled Brookside treats. I’ve seen them on the shelves. So they are good, no?
