Try weight gain shakes in between meals. Also stash protein bars at your desk and remember to eat every couple of hours. I gained 10 pounds in a few months by doing this.

Yooooo I wish I could lose weight like that. Pretty sure a lot of us could. Do you like pasta? Eat pasta? Like IPAs? Drink IPAs. Do you workout? Stop. There, I’ve just summed up how I gained my first 20 pounds at the beginning of my career. I’m actually happy to say that after 5 years, I’ve finally shedded it all and back in shape 😂

For everyone saying “I wish I had that problem” are being insensitive to OP. This is actually a pretty serious issue when you’re too stressed that you are losing weight. OP - if you find it has to do with a lack of appetite try something like shakes or other nutritious energy dense food. If it’s you’re too stressed and busy that you notice after the fact that you’ve forgotten meals, block time off on your calendar, or set reminders on your phone

Thanks for your input. That was really helpful!

This is definitely me. I lost 6 pounds within a week and a half and it’s really annoying. I have to pack three meals to work just to make sure I don’t lose anymore weight. My damn bookbag is way too heavy in the morning. Looks like a middle schooler with twelve binders in their bookbag
