Note:-
The following vegetables can be used liberally-karela, bhindi, palak, cabbage, cauliflower, methi, brinjal(baigan), beans, lauki, snake gourd, kundru,tinda, cucumber (kheera, kakdi), papaya green(kaccha papita), banana green(kaccha kela),drumstick(saijjan ki phalli) and tomatoes.


You have to do regular aerobic exercise like brisk walk 30 minutes daily at least 5 times a week and not to miss two consecutive days of exercise.

If it does not help reduce weight (i.e. BMI ≥27 kg/m2.),one of the anti-obesity drugs can be tried.
Appetite suppressants (anorexiants)and gastrointestinal
fat blockers.
Lorcaserin and phentermine/topiramate (PHEN/TPM) extended release are two currently U.S. (Food and Drug Administration) FDA approved drugs.
Orlistat is a fat blocker and blocks the digestion and absorption of ~30% of dietary fat.
Bariatric surgery can be considered for patients with severe obesity (BMI, ≥40 kg/m2).
These are all prescription drugs.You need to consult a Physician /Endocrinologist for that.
Also you need to undergo Thyroid profile (serum free T3, free T4 & TSH) to exclude hypothyroidsm as cause of obesity.if not done already.
