I am 28 years old. My height is 5.7″ and I weigh around 160pounds. So you all must have got a clue about my problem. Yes I am obese and I want to reduce some weight. My father is saying that I need to increase my metabolism rate. As I am doing any kind of exercise and most of the time I am confined at home so my rate of metabolism is low. I want to learn about the ways of having a high metabolism rate?
