Losing weight as part of Weight Management is important because weighing too much is not good for your health. Being Overweight increases your risk of health conditions such as Heart Problems, High Blood Pressure, Type 2 Diabetes and certain types of Cancer. It also increases your risk for Arthritis (Joint Pains), Sleep Apnea or other Respiratory Problems, Infertility, Thyroid, Gout etc. It makes a person unconfident due to social implications or he/ she can be treated differently by others.
The best way to lose weight is to minimize the Calorie consumption either by doing regular exercise or by dieting. Eating more calories than you need will cause you to Gain Weight. Try to cut down your calories, Exercise (for example, walk, swim or bicycle) for at least 30 minutes. You will be more likely to keep weight off if you make these lifestyle changes.

Patient co-ordinators are the main pillars in the weight loss programme. A patient coordinator ensures that patient receives the care they need and also, they understand every aspect of their care. A patient coordinator is one-point contact for all the patients and a mediator between the patient and the Doctor. They help streamline everything like fixing up the appointments with the doctor, guide patients for the nutritional counselling, guide patients for the psychological counselling and to coordinate with regular follow-ups.
Weight loss can be achieved either by limit your calorie consumption or by burning more calories with physical activity, preferably both.
A healthy weight loss program consists of:
A reasonable, realistic weight loss goal
Nutritionally-balanced diet plan
Regular physical activity

DIETS DON’T WORK! Drastically cutting calories, eliminating entire food groups or depriving yourself of foods you actually like are not strategies for long-term success.
Supervised Diet and Exercise by experts can induce up to 5-10% of weight loss.
Pharmacotherapy or Medical Treatment: This modality could be effective but needs to be consumed for a lifetime with variable results. It has its own side effects and high cost which could be prohibitive.
Liposuction: Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure for the re-sculpting small amount of unwanted body fat. Liposuction is not a weight loss operation. Liposuction only removes fat under the skin temporarily; subsequently fat can get deposited in the same or other area
While diet and exercise alone may not be enough to cure obesity, they are still two of the best ways to prevent it. For treating morbid obesity and its associated complications, however, the researchers recommend considering biologically based treatment, including Bariatric/ Metabolic/ Diabetes surgery where appropriate.
