How I Decide To Embark On The Weight Gain Journey

Writing about this topic took me far back in the days of my humble beginnings when I can say I have nothing to my name, when boys just start hustling trying to earn their daily 500 naira wages, yes it was 500 naira back then and not the urgent 2k we use to say now, even back then things are way cheaper and all this cheap based work are easy to get at least you will get paid and 500 can still give you your normal 3 square meal. To be frank, it was literally hand to mouth things, you can't save out of it because you need to eat especially if you know there is no support coming in from anywhere. I was really skinny back then because I don't really eat much and I do stress myself, I was really part of the trekkers association of Nigeria with our main motto "It is not far, we will soon reach", I can't really count how many people I have say this words to, or try to drag them with me anytime we close from school and I/We don't have transport fare back home because our campus is quite from from home.

All this factors really didn't allow the food I do eat most times to have any positive effect on me and like they use to say " E no dey show for body". I do see all this chubby people in school living the life they want, eating what ever they want, be it junks etc, I want the chubby life but there is no resources to sponsor such life those days, it reach to appoint in my life that actually bring up this strong decision that I will be chubby and not skinny one day, so that faithful week, I had nothing on my and there is no one I could cry to for help, no foodstuff except small yam flour, some garri and dry pepper with ingredient, I was taking the garri once - twice daily for 4 days and I was already tired, the friday I had to trek to school for lectures even put that fake smile so people won't figure out what is really wrong with me and I had to trek back, hunger was really hitting me that day and when I couldn't take it anymore, I went to look for snails at the back of the house, and stir yam flour that day with no idea of what to make as soup, I don't even have money to grind the dry pepper, so I boiled it to make it soft and I use knife to chop it on chopping board then mixed everything together, it was the worse cooking ever but I don't have a choice and I had to eat it like that, since that day I really double my hustle and told myself things will be better and I must eat and be ok, even if I don't do any other thing, I must eat that food.

It was some month after that I join this blogging platform and I had to find my way around, the day I made my first cashout, I went to the market immediately to stock up the house since I live alone back then in school with food and I ate to my fullest. It is good to have money for real because I started seeing some changes in me some month after and people started thinking if I was doing illegal stuff which I wasn't. It was during Nysc Period that I gain weight the most, I can boldly say I use 80% of my allawee to eat correct food in Adamawa state where I was posted to, I use to sneak out of the nccf family house just to eat especially when they cook food I don't like (if you stayed in Nccf, you will know what i mean). Before I know it, The chubby mission was already complete and I started having big tommy (Sugar daddy vibes).

With what I really experience, I will stay don't joke with food, eat and eat but don't be a glutton that won't know when to stop eating lol, Food is important and one of the basic necessity of life.

Interesting story, atleast I can see how much weight you have put on and it does look good on you. Perhaps I should try once more if I'll finally be able to add some weight. Nice write up

@valchiz I am very impressed with your perseverance. Life is not easy for everyone. But being able to think and act rationally and optimistically is not something that everyone can do. Health is above all, when we have health, we can do whatever we want.

Putting on weight can be a great achievement especially if you were one who never had the liberty to eat whatever you wanted at first. I like your determination as you were still trekking to school on an empty tummy; I would rather stay home on such days.
