Suggestions to gain weight

Hi,
Am a working lady and mom of a 1 year old toddler.My main issue is like am too much underweight.My height is 164 cms but I weigh only 45 Kgs.My delivery was a C-Section even after which I dint increase any weight.I started my pregnancy with 45 Kgs and came back to same weight after delivery. i have tried eating all fatty items like cheese, choclates, high calorie foods etc.
All your suggestions are most welcome.I will be very happy even if i gain 1Kg.Am all ears for your suggestions

 

Re: Suggestions to gain weight

Are u pregnant again or is this your general question?

Anyway, instead of eating fatty foods try to eat foods that are rich in protein like Lentils, 2 eggs everyday, Chicken or fish, dairy products. Try to eat atleast 70gms of protein per day.

Hi,

I think you are a few of the lucky ones who dont put on any weight after pregnancy

Anyways you shouldnt be eating these fatty foods as it will play havoc with your system later on. In moderation, it is fine. Try and eat protein rich foods like Sima has suggested. You need to also exercise moderately, not to lose weight but to build muscle.

Love, Riya

Re: Suggestions to gain weight

Hi,

I got this from the internet:

General dietary recommendations from the American Heart Association are that adults eat no more than 3-4 eggs yolks each week. Since an egg contains about 213mg of cholesterol, eating eggs too often can cause you to have a diet that is high in cholesterol.

Eggs can be a healthy part of your diet though and shouldn't be avoided altogether. In addition to being high in cholesterol, eggs also have a lot of benefits, including being high in protein, iron, minerals and B vitamins. It is also important to keep in mind that the general recommendations for eating 3-4 eggs per week include eggs that are eaten as an ingredient of other foods, such as cakes.

Hope this helps!

Love, Riya
