Hello.The main thing is to follow a low-fat diet ,avoiding red meats, pastries, fried foods, alcohol and sugary products .It is also important to practice physical exercise (walking 30 minutes a day).In addition to those mentioned your endocrinologist may prescribe you drugs such as fluoxetine and orlistat,if he deems it appropiate, that can help you.I wish you good health.
