How can you put weight on healthily?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Go see your doc.: Not knowing what meds you are on, and why you lost the weight in the first place is a mystery for me. Megace (megestrol) is used often to bulk up patients, but i would see a doctor first. Your bmi needs to be measured and causes for weight loss (hyperthyroidism, cancer, etc....) need to be addressed.
