MGUS diet: Any tips on food to enjoy or prevent progression?

Along with the MGus, I have Trigeminal Neuralgia. I have to take Pregabalin which has already put 10 lbs on me. This I definitely did not need. When you are as inactive, as I am, it is not how much you eat, it is how little you move. I probably eat less than I have in my whole life, and weigh more. I have been told, if the scale goes up any higher, I will probably have to find another medication (not easy). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

@gina5009 Can you do seated chair exercises to help you move around? There are several youtube video series out there to follow along with. Or perhaps a floor or table set up where you can pedal your arms or legs and burn some calories? Stretching using towels or elastic bands?
Watching our diets is crucial in any health issue, and just when we want to eat something to make us "feel good" the other side of our brain is telling us it shouldn't be done, right?! [been there, done that!] Hoping this might help you in this time of stress for you.
