Brief Answer:
There is significant weight loss
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Loss of 10kg in 2 years is a significant weight loss. I don't know how your job contributed to it. All of us do our jobs and take care of our diet as well. Do you have loss of appetite? There may be anorexia and you may need to see a psychiatrist for it.
Taking only dinner is insufficient. You should take 3-4 proper and hearty meals and 3-4 snacks in a day. You should include high calorie foods in your diet like milk products (cheese, butter, ghee, sweets, etc). You should also take nutritional supplement atleast two times a day. Nutritional supplements like ensure and proteinex help. These measures should help you gain back the lost weight.
You should first consult an internal medicine specialist and get yourself examined. Bloodand urine tests are also needed.
There is dietitian consultation available with healthcaremagic. You can request a consultation and diet chart from a dietitian.
Hope it helps.
