I am a disabled lady of 68 years, Dieted for 20 years non-stop, and have a working gastric band. I have bad breathing problems on moving around the house and arthritis bad in back and knees.
I weight train but seated every day, quite hard to get breathless sitting, except for really bad days when I still do something with arm gadget I have.
I was a constant 23 stone + but since cutting calories further to 800- 1000. my weight has gone up to 25.9lbs. The gastric band people say I should not have more than 800 cal's a day but on shakes and 1 tiny meal. I have ballooned. When I ate a constant 1400 calories I stayed the same for years and when on occasion I over-ate I lost weight. I have hopspital saying I'm not trying, I cant walk or go out. Desparate for good advice. please ????

Stranger still, Here 2 weeks later.....I have surprisingly lost 2lb one day then a further 10 two days later making it 12lb this week doing nothing different. Baffled. ( only 1 change did stop eating after 6pm.!)0

Brunhilde, Are you still in the group? I'm just coming back, and I think what you were seeing is that we need to eat enough calories to lose weight, otherwise our bodies just shut down. Are you still there? How are you doing?0
