    ideas for your own weight gainer?

    I was going to buy a weight gainer, but I think id rather have natural one. Any ideas of what to put in a blender?

    Protein powder is a good flavor base.

    Personal favorites include:
    ?Berries
    ?Bananas
    ?Oats
    ?Spinach or some leafy green that isn't lettuce (but in small quantities, or it makes the drink quite bitter).
    ?Milk with fat, or alternatively, skim milk with a tasteless fat (canola oil, maybe olive oil).
    ?Yogurt

    My own "gainer":

    If I were to create one:

    1 cup of oats (or 1/2 cup oats, 1 cup plain yogurt)
    2 TB peanut butter (or one serving pistacios or almonds, because they are so good!)
    30g whey protein (ON or Elite, probably)
    2 cups milk
    Something yummy like fruit or pumpkin
    1 teaspoon vanilla jell-o pudding or ovaltine (instant, dry)


    ...yep, a lot of calories there!
    KARMA; reps for life:
    matthor-derickonfire-ozfiz-xquick-meyer23-AllGenetix, Beast, Scivation, Lando33
    girl81-2 D-spot skater-djaeger3-in10city-Emma-Leigh-bballbrett5, jaim91, imfusio
    Not on the list? Don't worry! There's still plenty of chances to achieve good karma.

    There's a hundred zillion threads about home-made weight gainers, and most of them are nearly identical.

    There's no secret to a weight gainer. Basically you mix protein/carbs/fat and drink it. Pretty simple.

    Usually it's like this:

    Protein = Whey powder/Milk
    Carbs = Oatmeal/Fruit
    Fat = Peanut butter/Flax

    Here is my weightgainer:

    16oz rice drink
    1 scoop of egg protein powder
    2 scoops of oat flour
    1 tablespoon of olive oil

    I don't need a blender to mix it up as all this mixes up very good in my shaker bottle.
