hai,
depends on the duration of illness weight loss can be considered.
as your father got heart attack,that will not loose weight immediately.
if your father lost 2 to 3 kg in a week with regular food intake then you should be worried.
kindly avoid fried,junk,oily food.
take more fiber fruits and vegetables. prefer steamed food.
take 20 minutes walk daily.
drink 3 to 4 liters of water.
thank you
hope i answered your query
