I took out all chips, breads, sodas, most pastas ( switched to rice pasta) and only 1/2 a cup at a time. Exercising and keeping busy. Still cant lose weight, Im 5 0 and weigh 165 lbs.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
 
It all depends on your height. If you are of good height too, its not a big issue then. Its because usually when age advances, weight gain is normal. You need to curb some carbohydrate and you are doing good with no sodas etc.

It depends on how you are doing exercise. I preferably suggest you to join a gym and the instructor there will guide you how to manage all that. They know how to perform a specific type of workout to get maximum out of that.


Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.

Have a wonderful time ahead.
 

Best Regards!
