Question 1

why  does my body feel heavy when i wake up in the morning?

Accepted Answer

: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor and discuss if you may be depressed. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated. Drink more water. Wish you good health!

Question 2

why does my body feel exhausted and heavy after eating?

Accepted Answer

Eating wrong thing?: Can't say for sure but the most likely cause is food sensitivities. Many people have adverse reactions to common foods. The most common offenders are dairy, wheat/gluten, corn, eggs, soy, almonds and beans. Almost all processed foods have at least one of these.
Try avoiding them by eating whole veggies, fruits and meats for a week, then add back one at a time to see if any cause problems.

Question 5

are body parts proportional to weight?

Accepted Answer

No: The shape of the body is mostly dictated by the genetic make-up. Also where someone loses or gains weight is also dictated by the genetic make-up. However, for most part, abdominal fat is linked to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and many more chronic diseases. Therefore loss of abdominal fat and fat around waist to hip (more around waist) is very important no matter what the body proportions ar.

how to add body weight?

Accepted Answer

Build muscle: Best way to add body weight is to build muscle by strength and resistance training. Also, add, but not too much, protein to diet  to help build muscle. Best sources of protein are plant proteins in nuts and beans. I am not a fan of whey protein contrary to the view of many because of reported issues with it.

Question 9

how to gain body weight?

Accepted Answer

Increase Muscle Mass: If you want to improve your body weight and you are  normal body composition, increase muscle (lean) mass or fat free mass.  Muscle weighs more than fat and this will improve your metabolism as an added benefit.  Consult a personal trainer who can direct you with  diet, weight lifting and aerobic exercise.  This is the "triple" approach to body building.

Question 10

Losing weight: To lose weight, get ur resting metabolism rate done(weight loss centers do this). This determines the total number of calories you need to lose 1-2lbs/week. Decreasing 500cal/day will give you a 1lb wt loss in 1wk; drink water (1/2 your body weight), eat small meals about 150-200cal 2-4x/(depending on your metabolism rate) and 500cal/meal at night: lean protein/veggies; avoid carbs, .
