HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is genetic related obesity then this would be difficult to manage or control and if this is not genetic in origin then the best way to control this is low calorie diet and exercise, but this should be done seriously, and for long time, hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
