This is my first post I hope I’m doing it right! I had knee surgery Jan 22 and my activity was also limited the 2 months prior. In total I’ve gained 10 lbs from the whole injury- surgery. I’m 60 and with the limitations on movement I still have am struggling to lose weight using any method. I was doing low carb gluten and dairy free intermittent fasting and stayed same weight at least. I’m trying to keep the fasting but switch to keto and I was in ketosis 2 days then dropped out and despite following it strictly (yes eating enough fat and super low carbs right macro protein) I fell out of ketosis day 3 and haven’t gotten back. Very scary as without being it you’re eating way too much fat. I feel like my body has some metabolic issues and not sure how to correct them. Nutritionists just teach me to cover my plate with half veggies and a serving of meat looks like a hockey puck. My family can’t believe how my eating doesn’t reflect my weight. I really need to lose about 30 lbs for my whys- help my joints. ward off diabetes (a1c at the line) and feel better in my body- I feel very restricted in movement with the extra weight. Anyone else correct metabolic syndrome? I know one could argue what I’m doing now is perhaps exasperating it but the lack of movement issue feels like I need a chemically induced burn vs a eat well and move equation. Sigh.
