    Dr. Oz,

    I am almost 49 with RA, type 2 diabetes, High blood pressure.  I am overweight by 40 -  50 pounds.  I have moderate to severe RA and with the pain being so high, my sugar stays rather high too.  I do try to watch what I eat most of the time and I do eat some things I should not.  I am not a big eater but my exercise is so limited with the pain of the RA.  I have taken many many major medicines for the RA and have not had much success.  My rhematologist has me now as disabled.  I try to walk the treadmill (lot of pain) and do the ab lounger some.  But then I am in more pain and can't hardly walk very well.  Please do you know of anything I can do to help me lose this weight???  Now my mind set is not good.  I keep thinking I will never succeed.  Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Sincerely

    Billie Brown
