How to gain weight from eating almost exclusively bread and potatoes?

::: spoiler don't do this - how to gain fat as fast as possible

Only eat processed food, so for potatoes -- instant potatoes, or really blend the potatoes before you eat them in a smoothie... buy the most processed and fake bread possible (wonder bread if you got it)... processed carbs hit your blood stream faster spiking your glucose more, which drives your insulin, which will suppress your leptin and drive hunger.

Only use seed oils - they drive inflammation and adiposity, so you want to be dosing seed oils every few hours

Eat constantly - every 2-4 hours you want to keep your insulin high, so eat a snack (combining processed potatoes and bread and seed oil) every few hours, it doesn't have to be a big meal... but you want to graze all day

Mix fats and carbs - this will cause the randel cycle (not a cycle) to misfire and drive inflammation, and adiposity. Every time you eat make sure your getting enough seed oil to stall the carbs your eating from the bread/potatoes

You will be forcing your serum insulin high all day (it takes 2-4 hours to come down after a meal), so your body will be in fat storage mode (not burning) all day. :::

Seriously though, there have been some great papers on the the metal disorder of anorexia and metabolic psychiatry - if you fix your metabolism, your body will recompose, and you may address your borderline anorexia...

Symptom Impact and Safety of Ketogenic Therapy in Adults with Anorexia Nervosa

Basically it's the Dr Ede strategy - eat your eggs and cheese, whole foods only, avoid carbs when you can...

Your body knows.

That is a great test to see if your actually hungry or just bored/addicted to sugar... If you think your hungry eat some butter, if your not hungry enough to eat butter, then your not actually hungry and its some other craving.

There are also many cheese addicts out there, just chowing down on blocks of cheese, yet they don't need supplements.... weird right?

passing untouched (fiber), and helps you not get diarrhea and constipation every week.

fiber bulks up stools, it is linked to constipation - removing fibre resolves constipation in a RCT.

There’s a reason that articles by dentists literally advocating for the carnivore diet, have 5-lines-long lists of symptoms, and recommend supplements both before meals, and “for bowel movements”.

Westin Price would disagree with you, there is no need for supplements , and quite frankly if someone is selling fibre supplements and advocating for a zero carb diet they need to go back to biochemistry for their inherit contradiction.

none of that changes the money spent is not thrown away in my kitchen.

fundamental inefficiency of animal nutrition is curious - most of the land in the world is not arable, yet can support animals, that land does not produce human nutrition no matter how much industrial fossil fuel fertilizer you throw at it. Ruminants eat grass growing on land not fit for farming and convert it into human usable protein. Go ahead and grow crops on arable land, use the non-arable land for animals.... oh, but even the crops grown on arable land are mostly not consumable by humans, we can't ferment cellulose after all, so what do we do with this "waste", we either throw it away... or feed it to something that can process cellulose (a animal).

a little angina never hurt....

all carbs get turned into serum glucose, glucose drives insulin, elevated insulin wrecks havoc with your cardiovascular system.

i love this meme, they are making fun of meat eaters, but they were not wrong.. it originally said fruit... which isn't wrong..... sometimes irony swings all the way around to truth.
