Dear Dr Health，

I am very overweight. Since people often laugh at me behind my back when I ride the Underground or going for a walk, I am embarrassing and do not like going out any more. Certainly, I do not feel comfortably going to the gym to work out. Instead, I prefer to exercise at home, and it seemed that I am always going on a diet. However, no matter how I do, my efforts to lose weight always end in failure.

As a matter of the fact, my friends say that I am an attractive girl just the way I am, and that I should not worry at all about my waist or my figure. However, I do worried that my weight might damage my health. I'm not sure that I should take weight－loss pills. There are news about a Canadian actress who suffered liver failure because taking those pills.

 

What do you think I should do?

 

Best wishes，
