    You can definitely increase your weight by 10kg.
    It is rightly said that one can be thin and energetic, and one can be thin and lethargic, this can be due to faulty food habits and improper nourishment.

    Why do you want to put on more weight as far as you are healthy, fit to do your work. Not having tiredness. Let it be in a natural process, if you want to put on weight, milk, proteins in natural form as well balanced diet of cereals, pulses should be taken.

      dear,your age is nothing to worry please don’t loss your confidence .once you loss your conf. then you suffer very problem with wait gain…please be confident and take healthy food with any kind of booster……….

  5. What is your height? Why do you want to put on weight? Is it because you want to look bigger, stronger? Is it just for cosmetic reasons?
    Do you feel weak? Do you eat proper food, 3-4 times a day?
    Putting on weight not easy, neither is losing weight. In fact people who put on weight, later spend their entire life and income on losing weight. So I would say, if you are healthy and fit, do not worry about your weight. Just enjoy your life and think about other positive things in life that will give your more joy.
