Healthy eating and exercise.
Weight lifting, body building, farm work.
Why put on what you may want off later? Start with putting on what will be helpful and healthy from the start.
The weight will take care of itself with a proper, well balanced eating.

Diane, I think the health shops have a shake he can drink with all kinds of good nutrients in it. My ex used to lift weights and he was into all that kind of stuff. He could start with eating good and exercising but also drink these shakes. Try one a day then two in between meals but he must do some kind of physical activity or he will become over weight fast. I would call a local nutrition store or Health store. there are so many GOOD supplements. Good Luck hun. P.S. I gained my weight back and ididn't even want too. I guess it is different with girls, huh? -Stacy-

Hi Dianne......I tried some protein stuff from the health food store, what weight lifters use. Made me pretty sick. I'm drinking Boost Plus, it's a little cheaper than Enshure and it has 360 calories. It's pretty gross but I gained 13 pounds in Dec.
good luck to you and your son
