Hello,welcome to the HCM.
Deworming will not help loosing weight as it will only eradicate worms not fats from body.My suggestion would be have small quantity of meals in 6 small portions,plenty of water and fruits will help too,brisk walk for at least 45 minutes daily.increase complex carbohydrates (oats,sweet corn and brow rice ,brown bread).
For acidity you may take tab.pantoprazole 10mg before lunch and as per need.
sudden weight gain can be because of inappropriate life style .Get also thyroid profile once to rule out thyroid problem.Otherwise above mentioned measures could definitly help.
