Lose weight: Check you BMI and aim to keep it below 25, preferably around 22. Regular exercise will help. Any exercise will do. Engage in at least 150 minutes/week of moderate intensity exercise. Visit this site to calculate your BMI: https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/educational/lose_wt/BMI/bmicalc.htm Wish you good health!
