Hello there. I can understand your concern. Its not how much you eat. Its about what you eat. You need to take in more proteins. And slso, you need to workout to build muscles. It will take time to gain muscles but its not like it will not happen. Consult a dietician in person for a detailed diet chart. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
