Too Full When Trying to Gain Weight?
September 14, 2021
When you first start increasing your calorie intake on your meal plan you might find that you're getting overly full.
It happens and is completely normal. It's not talked about as much as being hungry when in a calorie deficit. It is underestimated and could be just as hard to accomplish as trying to eat less.
What to do if you're too FULL
You never need to make yourself eat to the point where its extremely uncomfortable to reach your goals.
Just like losing weight, it's a process and you need to make sure you do it slowly.
Just like in my other article (I'm Always Hungry - in DFit Archive - available to DFit clients) I want to reiterate that you do not put so much pressure on yourself in the first week or two to finish every single meal on your plan. What matters is that you're increasing the calories. If each week you see progress and see the caloric intake going up, that's what's important!

Your DFit meal plans are set up for you to reach your goals but in the first month, it's okay to take your time and ease into the plan.
Give yourself props for finishing what you can. Each day push yourself to eat a bit more until you're in a calorie surplus and getting it all in!
All that food might be intimidating at first so it's important to make it as enjoyable and manageable as possible.
