Cerebral palsy & overweight.

Hi everyone, so I'm here to achieve my weight loss goals since I have a medical condition that affects both legs & I need to maintain a healthy weight. But because I am "too big" at the top half of my body, my family & friends & family are afraid that my poor legs won't be able to support me! Looking for support & motivation from strangers!

Goal is to be at 70kg by the end of the year.

Feel free to add me if you're looking for support!

Hi there, I'm not too up on CP... Do you have to eat a ketogenic diet (very low carb) like some people who have disorders/injuries to brain tissue?

Hi there, I most probably do, because I'm bulking up at the top & thats where I want to shed most of the weight! I've substituted carbs with more fiber & protein instead.

OP, I suggest you check out the main low carber forum group here in MFP then as it is where most of us Ketofiles tend to hang out:
