Hi! I am a newcomer to myfitnesspal and need some guidance. I am 200 pounds and I have Primary Lymphedema. I am to a point my swelling in my legs are not going down after taking care of myself with MLD's and pumps. My determination says to lose weight by eating properly and exercising. Can someone give me an idea of a diet that works with this condition? Thanks and Happy New Year.

    I have lymphedema as well. I need to lose 50 lbs. to reach my goal. I was at goal around 5 years ago and I noticed my lymphedema was less so I know weight loss will help.
