Why can i not lose weight through diet and exercise is there a prescription that can help?

Calories in: and calories out is a poor way to loose weight because all calories are not the same. Please as your doctor about a low carb /higher fat food plan. That can change your metabolism from burning sugar for fuel to burning fat for fuel. Good fats include coconut oil, olive oil and avacado. Peace and good health.
