| Re: Weight Gain and the scale...
Yes, you can gain inches but not pounds. That would mean replacing muscle (compact) by fat (more volume/"inches" per pound). It's very unlikely to happen.
I agree with the advice to do weighttraining etc. Gaining muscle is a lot healthier than gaining fat.
And half a pound per day is way to much! Slow is the way to go, it's a lot healthier.
By the way, having that "time of the month" isn't always strictly related to how much you weigh. It might come back at less than 115lbs, or at more. All the more reason to gain weight slowly. Your body needs time to "get going" again. The last thing it needs is another "shock" by overeating heavily.
