HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Testosterone replacement is indicated if blood tests show decreased levels of testosterone.
Low testosterone can cause decreased energy in some men and it is possible that with replacement , this would improve.
Weight loss can be difficult especially if done on your own. You may want to speak to your doctor or contact a nutritionist so that someone can take your through the diet changes.
Other options would be a bariatrician (weight loss doctor), online diet programs or meal replacement services.
The main types of diets are low fat/low calorie diet and low carb diet. You can choose the one that best suits you.
I hope this helps
