Hi, Thanks for your question. I need to know your current dietary plan to suggest you some modifications.
But these are some of the common guidelines that you can follow:
1. Include healthy fats from nuts such as almonds, walnuts, cashews and pistas and some dried fruits such as figs, dates.
2. Consume more of fermented milk products such as curd, buttermilk, cheese instead of milk, milkshakes, milk sweets.
3. Just ensure whether you have hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism. Hyperthyroidism leads to drastic weight loss.
4. Eat balanced and healthy diet.
5. Lean meat, fish, eggs are good sources of protein too! So have those in adequate amounts ( if you are a non-vegetarian)
