  • To effectively gain weight, it is recommended to eat nutrient-dense, calorie-dense foods such as nuts and nut butter, avocados, whole grains, lean proteins, dairy products, healthy oils, and starchy vegetables.

  • The ketogenic diet is a good choice, but I don't think it's suitable for everyone. My brother tried it, but it didn't work out well. Also, only if you consider sticking to the ketogenic diet for life, otherwise whenever you stop, the weight will come back.
  • Not that much but quite a half of it. I was having about 150 kg. I have lost about 20 Kg in 3 months, but now I see weight loss of 3 to 4 kg per month. I know it is bit less, but I am losing it gradually.
