I understand your concern for your mother. For losing weight, she first needs to set her metabolism levels and body clock right. She must:- a) Follow a strict dietary regime and set her body clock right b) Have 6-8 small but frequent meals and not skip meals c) Not compromise on nutrition while trying to lose weight

Next Steps

Additionally, adding foods that are nutrient dense and not calorie dense in her diet is very important. Things like white sesame seeds, lotus seeds are very high in calcium and should be included in her daily diet.
