There is no way to increase height which is a genetic trait for each person. For your height of 152.5 cm, the ideal height will be 52 kg. (you may add + or-- 1 kg) although not officially acceptable. To reduce weight you have to reduce intake and do exercises to lose weight, you must burn more calories than you consume a day from your diet, if you burn 3000 calories, you?ll lose a pound a week. People who lose weight slowly, about 1 to 2 pounds are more successful at keeping the weight off. You'll also burn additional calories if you increase your physical activity. Your weight-loss plan should do all of the following: ?emphasize fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free or low-fat dairy products. ?include lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts. ?contain foods low in saturated fats, avoid trans fats, and limit cholesterol and salt (sodium). ?avoid refined sugars and processed foods. You need to have diet plan based on your bmi & activities. Whatever we eat is metabolised by the body for the energy needed to do daily work and the excess is stored as fat. The abdomen is the first place to gain weight and last to disappear. In brief, weight reduction can be achieved only by reducing the intake of food 1/3 of what you take now. And by appropriate exercise plans for each part like belly, thighs, legs/chest etc. To burn off fat. Some tips 1) drink three or four cups of water whenever you feel hungry and just before eating food 2) take boiled or raw vegetable like cucumber, carrot etc. As half of your diet. Then take 1/2 of your total diet as sprouted pulses / proteinaceous food like roti, cooked pulses and remaining with rice or other carbohydrates. Oil or ghee etc. Should be just bare minimum. And do aerobic exercises, running, jogging or at least walking briskly 3-5 km and swimming if possible, and in a gym if feasible. The most important is to burn off the energy intake by exercises. There is no short cut or medicines without exercise & dieting to take just as mush food as needed for your activities. The food we eat is utilised for our energy needs and the remaining will be stored as fat which leads to obesity. It is better to do some tests.
