Dr. Saber Sulaiman Al-Gharbawi, consultant of obesity, thinness and physiotherapy, answers: This excess weight in this age we call it "sick obesity" is a type of obesity in which the number of cells is doubled and then bulging with fat, the degree of resistance to get rid of those fats is very high in these Cases, which lead to obesity, an advanced type of obesity that is more serious but has a cure.

In case of obesity or excess obesity, the patient should follow up with the competent doctor and be placed under a diet called a system called "isolated dish", a system in which the patient eats three meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) separatefrom his family, is a system that deals primarily with the psychology of the patient with obesity. It prevents him from following his appetite for family, which is the key to encouraging the patient to lose weight.

This diet is a very limited amount of food in that the food contains four basic ingredients in the three basic meals of the patient, and the meal consists of fresh vegetables, green salad, protein (meat, fish or legumes) and starches all in low proportions except green salad in quantity Large, but dinner and breakfast consist of yogurt and fruit only.

By maintaining this diet with follow-up with the doctor as well as taking into account the patient for daily walk from half an hour to an hour the patient can lose weight from 5 to 7 kilograms per month, which is a good percentage for the patient of excess obesity, and the weight is gradually reduced by keeping those Steps.

The "Ghorawi" emphasizes the importance of proper, calm and encouraging psychological treatment of the bariatric patient from both the treating doctor and the patient's family. She is already cured of obesity, but parents must take into account the patient's psychology and convince him of the diet and be careful to implement it as well as encourage him to lose weight, and even reward him whenever he loses more weight, especially if the patient is a child.
