Can we join if we're going the other way? I'm starting strength training again and am hoping to go from my current (rather slight) 141 to a more masculine 165, which is about what I weighed when I was really healthy. Problem is I have Crohn's disease, which isn't a big deal in general but can make keeping weight on a bit difficult. So I'm going for a higher calorie diet and in order to make it a healthy gain I'll be getting some free weights and making the gain muscle, not fat.
And yeah, I'm doing cardio too. I imagine it'd go better if I quit smoking, but I reckon everyone needs a vice.
