Hello
First of all I would like to say, please don't lose hope. Overweight is a very common problem these days and are well manageable. Give a try to the following suggestions-
1. If you say that you have tried dieting, I would suggest you get a diet chart and diet regulations done by a professional, as unplanned or unscientific dieting may itself cause overweight.
2. Now coming to exercise, this should also be monitored wisely to burn out extra calories. With proper instruction you can see the change in your weight in weeks.
3. Next important thing is sufficient rest, reduce mental stress and drink plenty of water.
4. Then Bariatric surgery should be the last option, but don't expect any magic, coz even after the surgery you will need quiet a few months to see the change in your weight and that also with a list of restrictions.
bariatric surgery is expensive more or less everywhere, but you need to check hospital policies where some of them offers a monthly payment option.
Thank you.
