What Is The Treatment To Reduce Weight?

Also, he weights apx 350 lbs and is 5'11" and is 36 yrs old. Thanks so much!

Does it hurt or is it painful for people to have a massive stomach/ belly. The type that seems to literally fold over. I'd ask but I don't want my bf to get mad. I'm 120 lbs, 5'7", and my top weight was only 125 lbs so I have no idea. I'd like him to loose weight and so would he but he's tried everything but fails as he eats 5 candy bars and drinks an average of .8 - 10 sodas per day. What can I do? And does being hurt/painful?

Hello and thanks for your question. The best thing you can do for him is to encourage him to have a healthy diet and to exercise at least 30 minutes every day. He will never lose weight as long as he eats all that candy and drinks sodas. Obesity puts him at risk for heart disease, cancer, arthritis and other medical problems. He must make the decision to change his behaviors and you can support him if he chooses to make those changes.
