Hi, @avmcbellar – Losing weight when you have health conditions can be a challenge. I tried a keto diet a few years ago but it didn't seem to help much for me. I was not on any medication at the time other than my blood pressure drugs. When I was on prednisone for my PMR, I was constantly battling weight gains which was when I tried the keto diet that I found in Dr. Terry Wahls book The Wahls Protocol. She has an amazing story of how she was able to treat her MS symptoms through diet and cellular nuitrition which helped look more at nutrition and diet for answers. I've recently this past month started an intermittent fasting program to lose weight that looks pretty promising so far. I found out about intermittent fasting from a blog - My Health Journey by @LeeAase -- https://social-media-university-global.org/my-health-journey/. The first entry that caught my eye and where I started following Lee to learn more was his entry - An Unfortunately Named Book and my interest was really peaked by a video by Dr. Jason Fung - Fasting as a Therapeutic Option.

Hope this helps!
