Sometimes, not putting on weight even when eating properly can be caused by hidden issues such as thyroid problems, digestive disorders (like celiac disease or IBS), infections, or a fast metabolism. As a dietitian here are my tips you can practice in your daily routine to help you achieve your health goal: • Include nutritious, energy-dense foods like nuts, seeds, nut butters, cheese, whole milk, paneer, avocados, and dried fruits into your daily meals. • Use healthy oils such as olive oil and ghee in your cooking to add extra calories, and make sure to include whole grains, legumes, and starchy vegetables like potatoes and sweet potatoes in moderate amounts. • Instead of having just 2-3 large meals, try to have 5-6 smaller meals and healthy nutrient dense snacks throughout the day. • Consume protein-rich foods like eggs, dairy, pulses, tofu, chicken, or fish in every meal in combination to help in muscle growth. • For exercising, practice gentle strength training or resistance training to help increase muscle mass. • Avoid eating processed junk food or sugary snacks for weight gain; make healthier choices instead. • Keep a food diary to monitor your intake and to help you find ways to increase your calorie consumption by keeping your meals healthy. • Be patient, as gaining weight healthily takes time; target a gain of 0.5-1 kg each month.

Hi Try including good amounts of healthy fat and protein in the diet. Check if you have hormone fluctuations like thyroid, and nutritional deficiencies. If everything is okay, I wouldn’t be worried. Also talk to a doctor if you have low appetite or any other health issues that’s preventing you from gaining weight.

You're 21 and underweight at 37 kg, despite eating properly. This may be due to poor nutrient absorption, high metabolism, or hormonal imbalance. You need a personalized, calorie-dense diet with the right timing and combinations.
Next Steps
Start a protein-rich, high-calorie plan (nuts, dairy, rice, ghee). Get a basic blood test (thyroid, hemoglobin, vitamin D/B12). Book a consultation with me for a customized plan that works for your body.
Health Tips
Just eating more isn’t enough—what, when, and how you eat matters. Let’s fix it step-by-step together.
