Underweight

2017-07-26 09:51:02
I have a BMI of about 15 which is rather unhealthy, that I know of. I have been trying to gain weight through stereotypical methods of eating more than required, but I lost motivation halfway through as I didn't find any considerable difference in my weight. Moreover, I didn't find any dedicated program for weight gain treatment which seemed promising. I really need some professional help. Thank you.
