I would like to know if there is a single word to describe the opposite of a diet.


If you are overweight you may say "I will go on a diet".

If you are underweight you could say "I need to go on a ..."


A single word is preferable rather than a phrase

    @Aganju indeed a diet is often one that is for losing weight but you could also be on a diet to gain weight. Or to stay the same weight. Or on a diet unrelated to weight - e.g., a vegetarian diet because you don't like meat. Or maybe you cannot eat meat for health concerns. Or a no salt diet. Or a no-sugar diet. Or a diet without olives because you simply hate them. There are a variety of diets because all a "diet" is is a "a food regime".

It’s still a diet, but for clarity you should call it a weight gain diet:




A weight gain diet is very similar to a healthy weight loss diet. In both cases, you will eat foods that are rich in nutrients and not eliminate major food groups. You will avoid "empty calorie" foods (junk foods that contain sugar, salt, and fat, but few other nutrients)



What Is a Weight Gaining Diet?




What's good about "weight gain diet" is that it works no matter who's doing it or why (even if that someone is an animal). It's also neutral and works no matter the level of formality.

    Under which universe binge means eating to gain weight? Binge can last for an hour, or a day or for a month (I doubt it can last for a month). It is not a planned or systematic way to eat to gain weight. Totally, irrational support to this answer. Answerer and supporter to check the definition before up-voting. Binge is just a eating spree or to say stuffing your mouth and tummy excessively.

In the fitness/bodybuilding context, the word bulk is used (the opposite process is a cut).



According to the OLE,



to bulk something out/up: to make something bigger, thicker or heavier



PS: I'm not sure this can be used in the requested form "I will go on a bulk", although an example can be found here.

    While I often hear about body builders and weight lifters "bulking up", the word "bulk" by itself tends to refer to mass and not the process of getting it. Also, I've only heard it used in connection with trying to gain muscle mass (though fat may come with it). I'm not sure its the general term when someone is underweight and trying to correct that.

    – TimothyAWiseman

  • @TimothyAWiseman I'm not sure if, for example, wrestlers would use "bulk up" just for weight gain, since for them any additional body weight may be an advantage (Sumo wrestling comes to mind).

    I'm a casual bodybuilder and have definitely heard the phrase "going on a bulk" used on many occasions, so I think this answer fits, although does have connotations towards gaining muscle rather than weight in general.

    – Will Appleby
    4 hours ago











  • bulking up and related expressions are used primarily by bodybuilders and weightlifters or even boxers to mean: achieve more body mass through eating more and building more muscle. The expression is in no way related to being an antonym for: "I need to go on a diet [to lose weight/gain weight" as asked by the OP. I can only think all this backing for this answer is the result of 1) a reading deficiency or 2) gender issues.

Well, it is also called Ectomorph diet. Diet for a skinny person to become strong. Ectomorph means a person with a slim physique. So, ectomorph diet is the diet for slim person to gain weight.



Citation 1: Men's Body Sculpting By Nick Evans




An ectomorph's diet should contain a surplus of calories from complex carbohydrate foods to encourage anabolic weight gain.

Well, binging would be bad. Stuffing one's face would be bad. Even if one is underweight.



So, better is: I will increase my caloric intake.



Everyday speech: I will eat more (food).



There is no "going on an x" for eating more food.



This answer is for spoken English register.

  • I don't know that any of the suggestions so far are perfect; the OP did not specify register. 'Diet' is ambiguous - it could mean the informal 'not eating as much as I'm used to' or it could mean more formally 'a deliberate change in food habits for medical purposes'. The latter, while a bit rarer, is more inclusive of eating differently.

Here I am considering the definition of diet as: eating systematically in a controlled and restricted manner.



I would recommend, overeat.



However a quick search on google give me this results,



  • binge

  • indulgence

So the whole sentence with the three provided words would go like this




"I need to go on a binge (diet)."



"I need to go on an indulgence (diet)."



"I need to go on an overeating (diet)."

    You could indulge yourself and still not gain weight. Maybe you've been stuck eating untasty food and you really want a nice tasting meal but not a lot of it. A home made roast is nice tasting and not really unhealthy. A "binge diet" doesn't sound natural. It's a bit of an oxymoron. In some respects, at least. An "overeating diet" also sounds a bit odd but it is at least a logical expression.

First word that came to my head was



Starvation



Oxford Living Dictionaries defines diet as




selection of food, food and drink, food, foodstuffs, provisions, edibles, fare




Therefore, I'd say the opposite would be to have none of the above

    The question asker isn't using the word "diet" in the sense that you're describing here. Rather, they mean it in the more colloquial sense of "a restricted intake of food normally undertaken to lose weight". Therefore your answer here makes no sense.

  • A diet can still lead to starvation. "Starvation" is when you receive a lot less nutrients than what you need. A diet is a regime of feeding - if that regime includes a lot less nutrition than your organism requires to survive, then that would lead to starvation. Such diets do exist - they are usually short term. A long term starvation by definition is not good for you.

    @Pixelomo "diet" is a formal food regime. With the example in the OP, somebody underweight would want to follow a regime which leads them to gain weight. A "binge" doesn't necessarily mean they'd do that for long - one might go on an eating binge over the weekend and just continue eating as normal the rest of the time.

    @Lambie there are other phrases too ("bulking up diet" for example), but a qualified "diet" really is the way to go assuming you need a noun. It might be more natural to say "I'm trying to put on weight", but that's the opposite of "I'm dieting"

In the fitness/bodybuilding context, the word bulk is used (the opposite process is a cut).



According to the OLE,



to bulk something out/up: to make something bigger, thicker or heavier



PS: I'm not sure this can be used in the requested form "I will go on a bulk", although an example can be found here.

    While I often hear about body builders and weight lifters "bulking up", the word "bulk" by itself tends to refer to mass and not the process of getting it. Also, I've only heard it used in connection with trying to gain muscle mass (though fat may come with it). I'm not sure its the general term when someone is underweight and trying to correct that.

  • bulking up and related expressions are used primarily by bodybuilders and weightlifters or even boxers to mean: achieve more body mass through eating more and building more muscle.

Well, it is also called Ectomorph diet. Diet for a skinny person to become strong. Ectomorph means a person with a slim physique. So, ectomorph diet is the diet for slim person to gain weight.



Citation 1: Men's Body Sculpting By Nick Evans




An ectomorph's diet should contain a surplus of calories from complex carbohydrate foods to encourage anabolic weight gain.

Well, binging would be bad. Stuffing one's face would be bad. Even if one is underweight.



So, better is: I will increase my caloric intake.



Everyday speech: I will eat more (food).



There is no "going on an x" for eating more food.

Bad as a poor expression of the idea, like stuffing, gluttony or any of the other nonsense sprouting up here. Laurel's by the way is fine. Just a different register. [gosh, for some reason my program won't give me bolding or italics on ELU, only on ELL].

Well, binging would be bad. Stuffing one's face would be bad. Even if one is underweight.



So, better is: I will increase my caloric intake.



Everyday speech: I will eat more (food).



There is no "going on an x" for eating more food.



This answer is for spoken English register.

  • Do you mean 'bad' as in 'not healthy' or as in 'not an appropriate word'. If the latter then I disagree.

In fact, there are some synonyms of "anti-diet".



I would recommend



gluttony



NOUN



mass noun



Habitual greed or excess in eating.



‘she said plumpness was a sign of gluttony in most cases’

  • I don't know that any of the suggestions so far are perfect; the OP did not specify register. 'Diet' is ambiguous - it could mean the informal 'not eating as much as I'm used to' or it could mean more formally 'a deliberate change in food habits for medical purposes'. The latter, while a bit rarer, is more inclusive of eating differently.

Here I am considering the definition of diet as: eating systematically in a controlled and restricted manner.



I would recommend, overeat.



However a quick search on google give me this results,



  • binge

  • indulgence

So the whole sentence with the three provided words would go like this




"I need to go on a binge (diet)."



"I need to go on an indulgence (diet)."



"I need to go on an overeating (diet)."

    You could indulge yourself and still not gain weight. Maybe you've been stuck eating untasty food and you really want a nice tasting meal but not a lot of it. A home made roast is nice tasting and not really unhealthy. A "binge diet" doesn't sound natural. It's a bit of an oxymoron. In some respects, at least. An "overeating diet" also sounds a bit odd but it is at least a logical expression.

First word that came to my head was



Starvation



Oxford Living Dictionaries defines diet as




selection of food, food and drink, food, foodstuffs, provisions, edibles, fare




Therefore, I'd say the opposite would be to have none of the above

  • A diet can still lead to starvation. "Starvation" is when you receive a lot less nutrients than what you need. A diet is a regime of feeding - if that regime includes a lot less nutrition than your organism requires to survive, then that would lead to starvation. Such diets do exist - they are usually short term. A long term starvation by definition is not good for you.
