Hi Suhail,

Your present BMI is 34.3kg/m2 (BMI=wt in kg/height in meter square)which clearly states that you are obese.
Go to a dietician,consult with him and follow a proper diet chart with adequate calorie intake.

I advise you to get some blood tests done
Blood sugar levels,
Liver function test,
Thyroid profile test,
Sr.cortisol and ACTH level along with an
ultrasonography of the whole abdomen.

I would also suggest you to go and consult with a bariatric surgeon.

Coming to your right leg numbness,it is due to injury to the L4,L5 vertebrae which can be relieved by physiotherapy
along with some nerve supplements containing gabapentin.

Take care,
Avoid junk food and carbonated drinks totally.
