Long time gone and struggling :(

Hi all, I've been gone a while and still struggling to loose weight, I've not been very well recently and was in hospital, since I've come out, it's really strange because I am not feeling like eating the foods I used to enjoy, it's almost like my taste buds have gone (it wasn't Covid, had that last year!) just not wanting to eat basically, which I find very strange but because of this my weight is going up 😥...I am quite a fussy eater, I don't eat chicken, pork, turkey, and I struggle to eat veg and fruit, I dislike avocados and radish, lettuce.....I have been having a coffee in the morning then maybe some bran flakes with blueberries but I've found I'm not enjoying it and most goes down the toilet 😣.....I have arthritis along with other health conditions so a lot of strenuous exercise is out the question, I did start going for a walk until I ended up in hospital, now I have no notion to go out, i'm stuck in a rut and so depressed, haven't spoke to my Dr as I myself have no idea what is going on! I would appreciate if anyone has an idea for a menu for me to try stick to and get back in motion? You all seem to be doing amazing, well done 🥰

Welcome back, Angelbabe1612, it sounds as though you have had a rough time.

I suggest you get involved with forum activities and chat to members about what works for them. The daily diary would be a good place for that, and have a look at Springers Specials to see if that gives you and ideas. You could also join today's weigh in and start getting to know people there.

This is a simple weight loss plan that you could adapt to your own tastes, following the principles of real food, home cooked. I've certainly changed my tastes since joining this forum and perhaps you will, too phcuk.org/wp-content/upload...

All the best :)

Hello Angelbabe1612 and welcome. I too have a number of health issues and can’t stand or walk well. I like to do armchair aerobics it can be fun. There are lots on YouTube, just type in armchair aerobics in the search and have a look. My favourite is Zumba Gold by Zoe Caldwell. Also I would join the weekly weigh-in here, it’s great for help and ideas, everyone is very supportive. Good luck on your weight loss journey. Pam
