Weight reduction tip: Walk atleast 2miles/day-start with what you can first & increase. Cut down carbs-no white rice, pasta norbread. Avoid fried food. Drink 8-10 glasses of water daily.

It's a good start.: Watching what you eat is also important. The next step would be too try and perform more vigorous excercise. It is a smart idea to see a doctor and make a plan so that you can ascertain with the doctor what form of excercise your body can handle without causing any damage. The doctor can also guide you on a healthy diet for you. Good luck.
