How to Get a Fuller Figure

Healthy Weight Gain

1). Choose meals with the right balance of protein, carbohydrates and fats. For gradual weight gain, you should aim for a high-carbohydrate diet, reports Medicine Net. Approximately 60 to 70 percent of your meals should be carbohydrates like bread, potatoes, rice, pasta. Proteins, like meat and dairy, should make up 10 to15 percent of your diet; and a small percentage should consist of unsaturated and monounsaturated fats, like olive oil, avocados and nuts.
2). Swap meals that are high in fat and sugar for foods that are high in nutritious calories, like nuts, avocados, eggs and cheese. Add them to your meals and snack on them during the day. This is especially helpful if you get full easily, because it will allow your stomach to adapt to a higher volume of food without missing important caloric intake.
3). Avoid drinking beverages during a mealtime because they will fill you up. Instead, restrict drinking to half an hour before and after eating. According to Medicine Net, drinking a small glass of wine or beer before a meal can boost your appetite and help you eat more also, however this must be done in moderation, and with approval from your doctor.

1). Exercise regularly to build muscle and help you achieve a fuller figure. Cardiovascular exercise could actually cause you to lose weight, so instead focus on weight training. Join a gym and ask a member of staff to show you how to use the equipment or invest in some free weights for your home. Always follow the instructions in the packaging to ensure you work out safely.
2). Dress in clothes that accentuate the fuller parts of your body, like figure-hugging high-waist jeans to show off your hips or a tight-fitted top that flatters your chest. Choose block colors when wearing dresses to draw attention to your curves, advises Laura Craik, fashion writer for The Daily Mail.
3). Use fashion to create the illusion of a fuller figure. A padded, push-up bra will help you to achieve the look of bigger breasts, and sculpted underwear can help achieve a curvy and rounded behind. Wearing horizontal stripes is another fashion trick that can create the illusion of a fuller figure.
