I workout (mild workouts tho) and I follow a somewhat balanced diet but I still look like a skeleton
Any advice?
Oh and yeah, one of my legs is 1cm shorter than the other that's why my hips are uneven

OP here, cico doesnt work. i just need to take my keto diet seriously i think.
Your nipples look like somebody tried to draw them on
You don't eat enough.
If you can't eat any more, start drinking shakes after dinner.
Eat nuts as snack.
- ex-skelly
GOMAD was made for you
also eat nuts/seeds as snacks - cheap and good macros
I was like you my brother in Christ. And, well, the only solution this issue ...is to eat more, that's all there is to it.
i feel you anon i have the same issue, although i'm not quite as skelly
i change up my diet but it doesn't make a difference and i know that sometimes i'm eating a lot of calories
i do a lot of cardio though which i guess is the problem but it's fun
whenever i do gain even a few pounds i feel shit
i need a personal trainer because i can't figure it out on my own
How much calories? I'm a skeleton aswell and barely gain weight with 5500+ Kcal a day, constantly eating fricking sucks.
How do you not gain weight at 5k cal? How much do you weigh now?
I'm 750 lbs.
Hey OP, I am a skinnyfat on the skinny side, too. I started with 2400 calories and was losing about 1kg a week from just 3 half-hour workouts. Now I do 4 times a week and require 4000 kcal to gain 0.5 kg a week 181 cm (5'11") 71 kg ATM. Started at 68 in November, lost a few kilos twice due to sickness, other than that I see soke growth.
Before jumping straight to keto, try if high carbs or high fat is easier for you to digest/eat consistently for weeks/months.
Best of luck to you.
some growth*
also I'm doing a Push-Pull split, each of my workouts take 3+ hours because I'm lazy asf and rest a shitton between sets and exercises.
For me, what works best is drinking a lot of my calories, but drinking as little of the fats as possible. I.e. drink a lot of milk, but only skim or 1% milk.
Then there's room (without going too inbalanced with too much fat or whatever) for some sweets (i.e. hazelnut-chocolate filled waffles from ALDI).
If I skip just one meal (can happen easily that I get distracted by everyday stuff and have little to no time left to cook and eat, I eat quite slowly), no matter how hungry I am the next meal, I'd throw up if I ate more than 800-1000 calories a meal. The larger the meal, the more rest I need after it.
For a few weeks I had to stay up till 5AM to finish eating for the day Ofc I start work at 4 PM so that was fine.
Sometimes sleeping a few hours first and then eating helped, because I couldn't sleep for a few hours anyways after such a huge meal.
Once you get used to it, it's pretty easy to eat larger meals, even if it's just a huge bowl of jasmine rice cooked in salted water and a relatively small amount of chicken. 250-300gs of (raw) rice just feels like 75g used to before, soo good. Like magic. Make sure you don't overcook your rice, it's easier to eat when it's not full of water.

This will be my last post here but, you gotta try drinking bananas (well-ripened, you know they are once they have a lot of black dots on them). Blend about 500g of bananas with 500g of milk (skim or 1%). Add more milk if you find it thick. Drink immediately as the texture will be messed up with time.
how much do you burn each workout?
I don't know, it's just 6 exercises with machines and free weights, mainly isolation, none of the 4 big compounds (except for DB chest press maybe) + 3 sets of 4 exercises for abs/obliques so resistance training only, each session can't be more than 100-200 kcals.
I used to do additional cardio, 2x200kcals / week, but I stopped doing that, not that it would be make anything more than a double digit calorie on the daily when soread over the week.
I think most of my calories are burned by the fact that I take the bus / walk or bike everywhere, I don't have a car. Also I'm quite active at home, too.
>walk or bike everywhere,
that probably explains it
