Hi doctors, I am seeing 1-2 kg weight variation daily in mine life. I weigh myself before going for motion. It shows 90/.2 I weigh myself after coming from motion, it shows 89. 1 kg. It will again become 90 around the evening. I know there is some variation weight in the day due to water but does this much weight variation is ok. I did my cbc, esr, crp, and liver function 3 months back. All were ok. I have read about weight reduction and cancer relations. I am scared since then.

Hi, ideal body weight for your height is about 65-68 kgs. You need to lose weight. Variation in weight is seen in everyone so its best not to check weight daily. Weight check should be once in 15 days. Here are a few tips that will help you:- exercise 40-45 minutes 4-5 times a week. Eat small frequent meals every 2 -3 hours have whole grain cereals like millets and pulses eat protein rich diet (especially post workout, it will help in building muscle) and improve metabolism. Eat proper breakfast, as 40% of day?s energy comes from breakfast. Include healthy fat in your diet like nuts - almonds and walnuts, seeds like pumpkin, watermelon, sunflower seeds, etc. Eat fiber rich diet, it will help to gain early satiety and help you feel full - include fruits and vegetables in your diet avoid junk food, oily food, processed or canned foods. Drink a glass of water every hour daily to optimally hydrate the body. Note: the given prescription can change according to different conditions.
