Looking for Weight Gain
Hi, I am 33 years old 5.8 feet and 50kgs, my weight has not increased even a bit for last 19 years.
I am so underweight and looking for proper guidance because for last 19 years if my weight is not gained, then I believe I have a problem.
Please suggest what I need to do, common things which I have observed is
1. Don't feel hungry
2. Pass motions within 10 minutes of having food and this happens every time
3. My stomach feels full with half consumption
of food
Please suggest which kind of Doctor I need to visit.

Hello,
Contact an gastroenterologist for correcting problems, if any.
-Exercise daily for an hour -Include protein in your diet (taking protein rich foods post workout helps in muscle building) -Increase fiber in your diet (Will help you stay full) -Include fruits and vegetables in your diet (2-3 serving) -Take 5-6 meals a day. -Water intake of atleast 3L per day -Add healthy fat like nuts to your diet. -Avoid/Exclude fried, sugary and junk food -Eat a balanced and healthy diet -Do not skip breakfast as 40% of days energy is from breakfast NOTE: The above mentioned practices can change according to a specific medical condition
