Dear Dr Health
I am very overweight. since people often laugh at me behind my back when I ride the the Underground or go for a walk, I am embarrased and do not like going out any more. Certainly, I do not feel comfortable going to the gym to work out. Instead, I prefer to exercise at home, and it seems that I am always going on a diet. However, no matter what I do, my efforts to
lose weight always end in failure.
