Your hip bones show and you want curves that do not come from padding. Your blood pressure runs 100/65 and your hands are always cold.

Feasibility Verdict
Yes. At 100-115 lbs, DASH provides the cardiovascular protection you need while you build mass. Do not restrict sodium—you need the full 2300mg.
Archetype Reality
You train three days a week and eat like you train zero. Your appetite dies under stress and your stress never stops. The texture of oil in a pan makes you measure twice and pour half. Your glutes are flat and your waist is narrow. The narrow waist is not the win. It is the absence of development that training requests but nutrition denies.
You compare your frame to women who outweigh you by twenty pounds. Your blood pressure reads 105/70. You feel fine seated, but dizzy standing.
Why Generic Advice Fails
Eating like a man produces bloating on your smaller frame. You need the feminine adaptation of DASH: same principles, but with attention to iron and caloric density without excessive volume.
Stop comparing portions. Start engineering density.
Physiological Profile
Metabolism. Fast and adaptive. Surplus requires density.
Blood pressure. Low normal. Sodium restriction is not for you.
Inflammation baseline. Low.
Nutritional Execution
Calorie target. 2500 calories per day.
Sodium target. 2300 mg.
Macros. Protein 115g, Fat 69g, Carbs 354g.
Meal Plan Sample

Lunch: 2 cups rice, pinto beans, olive oil, cabbage, salt. (700 cal, 26g protein)
Dinner: 2 cups pasta, black beans, olive oil, spinach, salt. (650 cal, 24g protein)

Daily total: 2600 cal, 90g protein, 2300mg sodium.
Alternative Diets
Try High Protein or Paleo.
Training Integration
Lifting structure. Full-body three times weekly in a gym. Focus on compound lifts and progressive overload. If you cannot yet train in a gym, work with a qualified professional to build the capacity to do so. Medical clearance is required before any gym attendance.
Cardio rules. No cardio beyond walking.
Read the chest training guide.
Direct Action Framework
1. Track your hip measurement every Monday morning.
2. Set alarms for 7am, 10am, 1pm, 4pm, 7pm.
3. Add a pinch of salt to every meal.
4. This week, eat five meals daily. Not three.
