Eat a healthy diet: eat a healthy diet from all food groups. eating too much too soon also can cause problems of electrolyte imbalance. Consult with a nutrition professional on what to eat and how much to eat to help you achieve your goals. Sometimes it takes a long time even after gaining weight for the period to return. Be patient and go slowly.
