welcome to healthcare magic,
The things you do to reduce your weight includes
1. having your thyroid levels under strict control (by medications regularly and regular check ups and review)
2. seeing your lipid profile
3. regular exercises
4. regular indulging in some sort of sportive activities
5. strict diet control (avoiding fat free diet and timely meals)
6. avoiding snacks in between meals
hope this explains
