Hi
You need to check your thyroid for high BMR.
Increase your protein intake. For that include more of sprouts, whole pulses, lentils, tofu, paneer etc in your diet.
Have 5 soaked almonds, 1-2 walnuts and 2 figs first thing in the morning with a cup of milk.
Do exercise and yoga daily.
For personalized diet plan contact me through practo.
Thanks
