Some basics: You maintain a steady weight when you match calories ingested with your daily calories burned. The burn rate depends on basic need, muscular & intellectual work. A pound equates to ~3000 calories. If you consume 500 calories more than your base need you would expect to gain a pound every 6 days.You may want to consult a clinical nutritionist to help with this goal.
