Hello Everyone, Do you have any idea how many calories should a 20 year old CFer should be taking a day to gain weight. I have diabetes so my doc told me not to exceed 3000 calories is this enough knowing that i am a skeleton!

Did your CF doc tell you not to exceed 3000 calories? If so...I'm amazed. I also have diabetes...and my CF doc says I should be taking in at LEAST 3500 calories...because I'm also small. My diabetes doc....has never said anything to restrict my diet at all.Dea

There is a test you can do that counts how many calories you burn by just sitting there. It's really simple, you breath into a device for ten minutes. Doing it can help determine how many you as an individual need every day. Check out the Nutrition, Diet post.
