Yes, you should: Your risk factors are substantial, and I assume you recognize this & are dieting but are frustrated. If so, you're not unique--but stick with the effort! Cheating on your diet twice a week will help you feel less deprived, but make up for it the next day. Research fun low-cal recipes, and find some activity that you consistently enjoy and that gets you moving (walk, bike, etc.)

Dietician: Your medical problems are very concerning and I assume you're under the care of a physician but an endocrinologist and gynecologist should collaborate on your care. You may be prescribed metformin and blood pressure medication, but you should also consult a dietician who will set your goal for weight reduction and outline an appropriate diet. Without treatment stroke and heart disease can develop.
