Is it easy to get fat by...??


Question: Is it easy to gain fat from drinking alot of milk?
is it ok if the milk is 2%, will that still work?
and how long will it take to gain a few pounds?
Answers: For a weight gain diet, some people will tell you to switch from water to milk. Of course, whole milk has more fat, so it will cause you to gain weight faster.

One cup of 2% milk means 120 calories. A quart has four cups, or almost 500 calories. 3500 extra calories means an extra pound of fat, so 7 quarts (almost 2 gallons) would mean an extra pound.

Whole milk is 150 calories a cup, which comes out to 6 quarts being a little over an extra pound. So the extra fat in the whole milk can make a little difference over a long time.

It can help if you are trying to gain weight, but, like losing weight, it rarely happens overnight.
it is easy to gain weight by drinking milk, but it is also easy to gain weight by not excersising as much and eating more.
