Question
What should be done if a patient fails to lose weight after using weight-loss medications and acupuncture?
Answer
Obesity is a chronic metabolic disease, and its treatment should combine nutrition, exercise, and professional medical knowledge. Relying solely on weight-loss methods that do not consider individual differences is insufficient; this requires the guidance of a professional nutritionist or doctor. Incorrect weight-loss methods may lead to negative results. It is recommended to develop a habit of walking or engage in aerobic exercise, gradually increasing the duration and intensity of physical activity, and maintaining at least one hour of exercise daily.
