Here are other factors that i think is causing you to gain weight beside all the cheap meat we consume here.

1. Lack of exercise: Back home almost every nepali walks 3 - 4 miles per day. Walk to the bus stop and back from college or work. Walking for shopping, climbing stairs to your room on the 5th store and such.

2. The Age Factor: Many people forget that its just the age that is supposed to add some weight on you. Most nepali get here between 18 - 25, once you start going downhill you are supposed to gain weight as you stop growing vertically it is likely that you are going to start grow horizontally.

3. Cheap Food: Food is cheap in america, and is available everywhere. Lack of knowledge in healthy food choice contributes a lot. I remember the times when we were student. We were buying those unhelathy 0.60/per lb chicken legs, the cheapest you could get, instead of smaller portion of chicken breasts that was 3.99/per lb. Make the right choice, if you cannot afford good meat then eat less of good meat than more of cheap bad meat.

4. There is no such thing as bad Nepali food. You just have to know how to balance it out. Our diet has too much carbs in it. Too much rice makes us lazy and unproductive. Reduce the portion of rice, increase protiens like Lentils and beans and vegitables. Avoid oily food and lots of oil in your curry and meat. You are getting that pot belly from too much rice and your legs, arms and chest is small because you have no protien in your diet.You can easily see the difference between an american fatass and a gorkhey fatass. Gorkhey fatass doesnt have any ass all he has is a huge pot belley that doesnt allow him to see his own pee pee.

Hope this helped !!!
