Brief Answer:
Need to address the cause

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome,

Some people are on heavier side since childhood. It is mostly genetic composition for them and nothing works to redue their weight.
Others may have a sedentary lifestyle or excessive eating.
Still others may be having some health conditions like thyroid problem, metabolic syndrome, etc. In some cases medicine intake maybe the cause.
So we need to find the cause and address it.

Please let me know your weight, height, age, gender, any medical conditions, any medicine intake, etc.
Also let me know your daily diet and lifestyle.

What have you tried for it? Please upload any reports

Regards,
Dr Vaishalee
