A member asked:

How can i tell if i have reason to be discouraged if my hips are growing wider?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No reason: No reason to be discouraged just take action, decrease your calorie intake with a lower fat more balanced diet and start an aerobic exercise program. You should gradually loose weight and your hips will get smaller along with that.
