Hi hope you are w well. To increase weight you will need to have small, frequent energy dense meals. Increase carbohydrates. Add ghee to rice,roti or vegetables. Have milk with dates, bananas, nuts daily. To give you a personalized plan I need details of your daily pattern. You can ping me for an appointment for the same.
