Really hoping someone can help with some ideas as I’m struggling at the moment. Have been through an incredibly stressful period in my life over the last few months and have lost around 2 stone, I’m now around 7 ish stone and really need to put at least a stone back on. Definitely no underlying health issues just stress and not eating or looking after myself properly. Have turned a corner now and am eating - just the usual things people would eat and what I’m cooking for my children, but I can seem to put any of it back on. I have to walk 8 miles a day which I don’t think is helping so I always feel like I’m playing catch up, what can I eat that is good for weight gain combined with the amount of walking I’m doing? Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Women need a certain amount of body fat, it's essential for hormone production... So adding fat can definitely be good for you. Additionally you can't build muscle if you don't have enough calories coming in to create it, that's how chemistry works.
