what causes an enlarged and fatty liver?

I have severe diabetes, had 2 heart attacks last yr, I’m 40. my liver is “fatty” and enlarged. I am overweight, but was under or at normal weight level clear up until the dr removed the gallbladder, then i quit smoking and gained about 45 lbs since. the gallbladder i found out later did not need to be removed. i can eat a salad or drink a glass of tea or even coffee and all of a sudden my stomach is so bloated and hard as concrete. i was doing cardio and wt training as well as pilates and water aerobics…5 days a wk usually 4-5 hrs a day, and still could not lose an ounce of wt. what gives? i had blood work done last wk and was told today that my chol is 470 and trigyceride level is 790. she said everything is wayyy tooooo high. but im sure it is all related to the diabetes, heart condition (r coronary artery is clogged and too small for a stint) and fatty/enlarged liver. this scares me. thanks for your help.

How to encourage your child to care about eating habbit?

He is 9, and I have to watch what he eats often so that he does not bulk up any further. I have enrolled him in Karate in which he loves, but he LOVES to eat. The kids on the bus make of of him and called him “Fatty.” This bothers him a lot. I don’t think he is really overweight, but it is borderline. It just breaks my heart when he comes home and tells me about these kids. Suggestions? Restrict his food intake and tell him why? Or just restrict his food intake? Help.. He is just a kid.
I cook regular foods. He is addicted to starches, potatoes, breads, cheese. I will place one helping on his plate, and he wants to eat 3 servings. He eats his fruits and veggies, but wants more… and more… and tells me his is constantly hungry. WIll try to sneak anything he can find, or get away with. This is breaking my heart. How to help him, without hurting him?
I agree with smaller portions…. I guess I am wanting to know if I am making to big of an issue out of this? He is chubby, not fat? I don’t want him to think he is fat, and then get a complex, but I do want to see that he eats smaller portions that are (healthy.) I don’t want to damage him by telling him that if he keeps eating like this then he will get fat. He might worry about it excessively?
I have Cancer, I am sure this is one stressor in his life. We have all been through a lot in dealing with this issue. Could that be the reason he eats so much? Or dealing with these brats at school?
YES, I don’t want to make more stress on him… I don’t want him to think that I think he is overweight….. I want him to feel comfortable in his own home, yet keeping him healthy.

how often and for how long should ‘I’ exercise..?

I am 13 yrs old, 5’2 and 98 pounds. Everbody says I’m skinny but what they don’t see is that I have some fatty body parts that needs to be worked on (eg. waistline; used to be 24 inches; now 27). For short, I have gained weight.

I do exercise 6 times a week (pilates & cardio), 60-120 hours per session. I just wanted to ask how often should I exercise with my case for faster results.

P.S.
If you don’t have something HELPFUL to say,
then don’t say anything at all!

P.P.S.
Please don’t tell me to accept for what i am right now.
I really don’t need sentimentality..
