What is the fastest way to reduce weight?

Question

Hi doctor,

How can I lose 10 pounds quickly?

I have tried everything, and I feel really bad about myself.

I do not go out because I do not fit properly in the clothes I would like to wear. I know there are people with bigger problems, but this truly affects my mind, so please help me. I exercise and also do weight training with a teacher. My diet is different. I do eat protein and cut bread out.

Is there anything I could take to go faster?

Please help.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Yoga and exercises as health permits will help gradually. Do diet modification. Get physically examined and investigated to rule out any medical condition and treat accordingly. Eat a low-carb diet, and drink plenty of water and fluids. Get yourself fully investigated, including a complete hemogram, blood sugar, thyroid profile, lipid profile, blood pressure, and urine test. Rule out any medical or surgical conditions, and if any, treat them accordingly.
