Default Re: Need suggestion to gain weight

Hello Himsini
Take equal quantities of black til [sesame seeds] and black urad dhal. Clean them of stones, etc. Fry them separately in a pan, without adding oil. Fry a few red chillies [ acc. to your taste]. When cool, grind all together. Add salt to taste. Store in a container. Take 2-3 tsps of this powder along with til oil with rice or idli, dosai, etc.
I tried this and gained 2 kgs. There is a saying in tamil - elachavanukku ellu, kozuththavanukku kollu - meaning, til for the thin person and horsegram for the fat person.
However, as the others have said, count your blessings - losing weight is very difficult. I've known of many relatives and friends who, in spite of going on diets, doing yoga, exercises, etc. find it extremely tough to lose even a kilo. and of course, they have all the related problems due to excess weight - shortness of breath, joint pains, lethargy, etc.
Regards,
SubhaD

Its really nice to see all these posts, I have the same problem, but my problem is just with my arms and hips, they look so lean compared to my stomach, and I am a bit scared if I eat this stuff would fatten my stomach instead of arms and hips.

I just want to concentrate on my shoulders, arms and thighs with being my stomach flat. Any suggestions for this?

I do excersice regularly, 2-3 cardio classes and 2 yoga classes per weak. I am also getting married in November and everyone tells me that I look so thin and would have to improve untill marriage. I would want to look healthy but not fat. Can anyone suggest me any diet plan for this. Thanks a lot.

Hi ,

I was very thin before my marriage.Everyone was worried how will saree suit me.
I applied three formulaes-

1)Then My naniji told me to have one ayurvedic medicine-Asvagandha
And you know what it worked.

2) I ate milk with banana a lot.

3) every mornig I use to drink milk with 1-2 teaspoons of honey.

Now I am neither fat nor thin.
So Don't worry ,Only try-try-try

Hi metla,

Welcome to this site and this thread. we are all fighting with our weight and you want to increase the same? mmm.....

Just kidding dear. First Congrats for your Marriage.

My personal advice is you just join a gym and ask the master. Actually he / she will help you in this. Because they are Professionals and they will give good advice regarding shoulders and arms. ok ya?

General things I can tell you. have fruits and raw veg. more in your diet. that will help your skin glow. have lots of water. Keep your mind free.

you can take banana, mango, apple etc., can have dates and dry fruits also. Hope this will help you.

Thanks a lot for your response. yeah surely will try that. I do go to cardio and yoga classes weekly. I guess it is time for me to have a personal trainer to get my body in a correct shape as you said.

Also, I will try to maintain daily diet as you all mentioned. Thanks a lot for all your advices once again.
