Over 50 and morbidly obese - How were you successful

markrehim

I'm 57, 160 cm tall and weigh 89 kg.
I hit a plateau in the past 5 yrs and no matter what diet or exercise I do nothing works. I even joined a weightloss camp for 2 weeks with a very strict diet and 5 hrs exercise daily and all i lost was >3 kg which came back in few weeks.
I monitor my calories and macros and I rarely go over 1200. I Limited cheat days. My problem is that I can't accept myself this way and I ran out of ideas. I do exercise but carefully cause of my bad knees, mostly on treadmill.
Also, I live a daily struggle in kitchen having to cook delicious food for family and healthy FF, low carb food for me.
Whenever I think of giving up and just limit my food intake I gain more weight. Feel that I gained immunity from dieting all my life since my teenage.
Any tips or ideas.
