after I had my daughter 2 years ago I lost all my bs y weight (25 lbs) in 2 weeks. Woohoo for me? Not exactly. Found out my husband is terminally ill, lost my job while breastfeeding blablabla. I gained 50 pounds. 50! I now found out that because I'm overweight (200lbs at 5'9") I have a fatty liver which slows my metabolism even more. I have a naturally fit husband and we'd both like it if I were the same lol. My struggle is almost all mental! I need all the love support and encouragement I can get. I'm committing to logging in everything I eat until I meet my goal.... No matter how embarrassing. I'll be adding in lean foods and slowly cutting out the carbs and fat. Add me as a friend (you can do that - right) I'd love to follow your journey too!

    Hi, I just read your post as I searched "fatty liver". How are you getting on with your journey? I also have been diagnosed with fatty liver. I have a six year old daughter and my husband is fit and has a healthy weight. I am 5'2" and 161 pounds. Any help / encouragement would be much apprciated.

    Some address it by cutting carbs to <50 grams a day and making up the carb calories with fat calories. If you have any interest you can google very Low Carb High Fat. There is more than one way to skin a cat they say and google can be your friend to fine research vs personal thoughts.
