Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I want to increase my weight. I am eating too much, but my weight is still the same. Please advise me what to do.
Hello,
I am glad you chose icliniq.com for your medical-related queries.
I can understand your concern.
Alternative foods to help with weight gain are also mentioned below.
Start the day early, around 7:00 a.m., with three to four pieces of soaked almonds or a handful of sprouts.
For breakfast at 8:30 a.m., have four pieces of brown bread with three boiled eggs, or four pieces of bread with peanut butter.
At mid-morning, around 11:00 a.m., drink one glass of fruit juice, preferably pineapple juice, or have a banana milkshake. Any fresh fruit juice can also be taken.
For lunch at 1:30 p.m., eat 200 grams of cooked rice, one bowl of vegetable curry, 50 grams of dal, and 150 grams of chicken breast curry. Half a cup of sour curd can also be included.
In the evening, around 5:30 p.m., have one bowl of chicken stew, or semolina porridge, or chira pulao (flattened rice cooked with vegetables and mild spices).
For dinner between 8:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m., eat pieces of roti or 150 grams of rice, along with one bowl of paneer curry.
Advice:
Do exercises like strength training or yoga.
Avoid stress and alcohol.
Take plenty of water (ten glasses a day).
You should eat more food at each meal by making an effort.
Before taking a meal, you can walk for some time, as it helps you feel hungrier.
Sleep at least seven to eight hours per day.
You can take chocolate, pastries, cake, chips, butter, ghee, and paratha.
I hope this has helped you. Please feel free to reach me again in case of further queries.
Thank you.
