Answered on 23rd May '24
If you’re 24 years old and weigh 38 kilograms, it’s essential to establish why you’re underweight. You might often feel weak or get ill frequently; the problem could also be related to difficulty trying to build muscles. To put on weight in a healthy manner, it is advisable to eat more nutritious foods such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains.

i am taking some OCD and neuro medicine. now i want to loss weight . suggest me any medicine or product according to my condition.
Female | 21
Weight loss supplements can be tricky, especially for those suffering from OCD and neuro medications. Products have the potential to enhance one’s current medication, resulting in reactions that are not only unpleasant but also annoying. It’s preferable to try healthy nutrition and consistent physical activity to control your weight. Consult your doctor for a diet plan that is tailored specifically to your problems and situation and your health condition.

I need to lose weight without exercise what do I do....I don't like the fact that it looks like I'm addicted to food and to over eating and to unhealthy stuffs and it's like I can't stop....
Female | 20
Trying to lose weight sans exercise feels tricky. An unhealthy attachment to food, mainly the not-so-good options, grows common. Excessive intake causes weight gain. Feeling unable to control your eating qualifies as a symptom of overeating. Root causes could stem from emotional eating habits, boredom, or stressful situations. To improve, practice mindful eating, monitor portion sizes, and swap in healthier edible choices.

I don't gaining weight ( really tired of myself) and I'm a footballer too...
Male | 20
If you feel tired and don’t see any increase on the scale, it could be that you’re not eating enough to fuel your body. You should eat more calories than the average person because of how much running around you do on the field. Make sure to have a lot of carbs, protein, and healthy fats in each meal so you get all the nutrients necessary for good performance. Consider creating a menu with a nutritionist that supports your energy needs.

Male | 14
Being an obese teenager and addicted to alcohol at an early age can result in severe health problems. Conditions such as too much weight gain, feeling unwell constantly, and finally, what is more, having to crave alcohol a lot are frequent. Poor eating habits, lack of exercise, and feelings are the three most common reasons for this problem. What will help is directing these young people toward the right path. It is important to attend the first consultation with a healthcare professional who will provide you with proper guidance to choose healthier food, help you with managing alcohol addiction, and suggest suitable treatment options.

My mother is suffering from overweight. Can she have a liposuction therapy as she is in her early 50's.
Female | 49
Liposuction or literally ‘sucking out fat’ is a suboptimal therapy for OBESE patients who desire weight loss. Liposuction can be considered as a treatment option for body sculpting, or slightly overweight patients who need to shape their abdomen in a particular manner. However, if one is obese, liposuction will cause a disproportionate loss of fat over the tummy, and leave space for fat re-accumulation in the future.
There are many weight loss options for a proportionate weight loss, eg. diet, exercise, or medications.
The healthier or ‘more natural’ way to lose weight in obese patients (with a BMI of more than 30 kg/m2) is bariatric or metabolic surgery, wherein the stomach is re-sized or bypassed using keyhole surgery. This surgery causes proportionate loss of fat all over the body up to 80% of the excess body weight, over a period of 1-1.5 years. This surgery is a safe and effective option if done by a certified surgeon at a high-volume center.

Can u drink slim fast 2days after a gastric sleeve surgery??
Female | 42
After getting gastric sleeve surgery, you need to watch what you consume. Two days post-op, avoid high-calorie drinks like Slim Fast. Your stomach requires healing time. Stick to water or clear broth initially. Slim Fast could irritate and cause discomfort. Follow your doctor's advice for optimal recovery.

How to reduce lower body fat??
Female | 20
To reduce fat in your hips, thighs, and buttocks, eat fewer calories than your body needs. Excess calories turn into fat. Focus on eating healthy foods like fruits, veggies, and lean proteins, and exercise regularly. Activities like walking, jogging, or biking can help burn stored fat and improve overall health.

Female | 25
It's worrying that you have been gaining weight even though you don't have a big diet. This might be caused by different kinds of reasons such as hormonal problems (especially thyroid) or metabolic issues. It is great that you have done workouts, however, if it causes you pain, don't overdo it. Starting with basic exercises like walking or swimming is a good option. A balanced diet including more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can also act as a medicine. If the weight gain continues, see a dietitian for a safe and healthy evaluation and guidance.

It's natural to feel concerned about your weight, but remember that everyone's body is unique. It's important to focus on your health rather than comparing yourself to others. Visit a nutritionist or a dietitian who can guide you on a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Side effects of bariartic surgery
Female | 47
Bariatric surgery can have both positive effects on health and potential side effects. The specific side effects can vary depending on the type of bariatric surgery performed, but here are some common ones:
Surgical risks: It includes infection, bleeding, blood clots, and adverse reactions to anesthesia.
Nutritional deficiencies:It impacts nutrient absorption and lead to deficiencies of iron, vitamin B12, calcium, and vitamin D. These deficiencies may require lifelong supplementation and close monitoring.
Dumping syndrome: Can occur after gastric bypass surgery, where food moves too quickly from the stomach to the small intestine. You may experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, and rapid heart rate after meals.
Gallstones: Rapid weight loss after bariatric surgery can increase the risk of developing gallstones.
Changes in bowel habits: Some individuals may experience changes in bowel movements like diarrhea or constipation, after bariatric surgery.
Hair loss: Temporary hair loss or thinning may occur due to nutritional deficiencies or rapid weight loss. This is usually temporary and can be managed with proper nutrition.
Psychological and emotional changes: Bariatric surgery can have a significant impact on body image, self-esteem, and emotional well-being. Some may experience depression, anxiety, or body image issues post-surgery.

Female | 19
Hey there! Do you struggle gaining weight despite healthy eating and exercising? It's okay; sometimes metabolism slows down. Your body may not burn calories quickly. Hormonal imbalances or stress could cause it too. Make sure to get enough sleep. Drink plenty of water. Manage stress levels well. Consider consulting a dietician or trainer for personalized tips.
