Hello,
It is important consulting with a dietitian to help you with a diet based on your age and weight, without causing any damage you your body. It is also important performing some tests:
- Fasting glucose
- Thyroid hormone levels
- Sex hormone levels
- An abdominal ultrasound to exclude ovarian cysts
These tests will help exclude secondary causes underlying overweight.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
