Dear Dheepiga... Greeting from HCM... i understand and appreciate your interest to look good and thin ... But why only for the purpose of marriage ??? loosing weight is easy but maintaining is difficult ... you need to put constant effort to be healthy and fit... having ideal weight is not only for cosmetic purpose , but for the sake of your good health ... here are few advises from my side.... first you need to get your lipid profile, microalbuminuria and HbA1c checked. your medications are sufficient for time being if you are committed for lifestyle changes.. first stay away from all the fast / processed / and fried food stuffs .. divide your meal in to 4-5 parts per day whenever you feel hungry.. add more of fiber rich food stuffs like green leafy vegetables, raw fruits.. (not juices), eat very less of carbohydrates (rice) avoid sugar completely.. take Millets and breads prepared out of it like ragi.. ragi is a very good source of calcium too...do take more of proteins ... like egg white... say no to oils and cholesterol rich food stuffs ... u can take fish (boiled) but chicken (without skin) rarely...sir, based on this you prepare your diet chart and strictly follow it ..Do exercise .. walk at least half an hour to one hour a day ... try and practice yoga and pranayama ... some aasanas are very easy to practice and also beneficial. Quit smoking and reduce your alcohol intake. Moreover, beet root juice (inorganic nitrate), olive leaves, garlic, termeric, tamarind also have proven benefits. if u can follow these (have to!!) you can definitely see difference yourself
