Dietician: I recommend that you have one visit with a registered dietitian at your hospital. He/she will determine your ideal weight, critique your current eating habits, determine your daily calorie needs taking into consideration your usual level of physical activity and, finally, outline a proper diet for you personally. Food supplements may also be recommended if substantial weight gain is advisable.
