Homeopath Dr. C. J. Varghese's  Response
Hello Riarmk,
Yours is a constitutional tendency to become obese. This can be corrected by genetic and constitutional approach of Homoeopathy. Homoeopathy can also prevent the development of any said complications of obesity. Your increased appetite can be reduced with this treatment.
What medicine you will be given is to be decided by the physician. He needs a lot of information before he can select a constitutional remedy for you.
Therefore my advice is to approach an expert Homoeopath at the.
If not able to find one, then you can get back to me with the detailed case history. I think I can help you.
With Best Wishes,
Dr. C. J. Varghese,
Homoeopath

hai this answer is with reference to your weight gain which is common to most of the ladies that too in India where the family members advocate feeding or food intake if some one loses 10kgs like you, take my word there is no short cut to reduce weight and reduction of weight most of the time will take place with strict dieting with proper exercise, yes Ayurveda has certain formulations eg: guggulu medicines where they suppress the binging of food and most important is you should be under doctors supervision
ion where there will be nutritional deficiencies during dieting

Where weight gain that has a reason and patient has a resolute will to reduce weight usually offers positive results. Weight comes under control with combination of three factors, exercise, diet check and medicine. There are number of side effect free medicines in ayurveda for this. Dashoola arisht and medohar guggul are the commonest. Brisk morning walk and meals and only meals and nothing but meals is strictly needed.

4. avoid prolonged fasting as it will cause increased hunger and weight gain, instead take small frequent meals.
