Are you talking about clot in the airways or in blood vessels of left lung. For clot in blood vessels u should consult a pulmonologist and also a cardiothoracic surgeon for need of any surgical intervention if required. Avoid severe exertion. To lose weight have high protein , low carbohydrate diet and do a regular brisk walking for atleast 30 mins 5 times a week. Have your diabetes under control with regular glucose monitoring
