Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

I've been diligently following a cardio exercise routine and maintaining a healthy diet, but my weight loss journey seems challenging. Despite losing 20 pounds, I don't see a noticeable change in my body size. I'm concerned about losing muscle and gaining fat. Is there a reason for this, and what adjustments can be made to my exercise and diet to achieve more effective results?
