Hi Harry, i completely agree with Oleg.. A controlled diet and physical activity will help you in overall weight reduction.. It will take you sometime for the result to be seen, so just wait for few more months. Exercises such as chest press, push ups, chest dip, bench press can also be included.
You can also get your thyroid levels checked as hormones play an important role in these conditions. In such a situation, your doctor can give you the best advice.
