I’ve gained quite a bit of weight due to my health, comfort eating, and inactivity. I’m trying to lose the weight but I’m struggling.

I’m struggling too. I have gained weight in the last couple of months. I used to do OMAD (one meal a day) but now because of medications I can’t. So I am trying to exercise as I can which is walking at a slow pace and trying to eat healthier.

Low carb, high protein should help. Intermittent fasting of 12-14 hours might help also. I drink coffee during the fast, or I would never make it. No sugar.. Monk fruit or Stevia for sweetness. Squeeze in some exercises or stretches if you can, It's better if between 11:00-5:00 pm per new research. Good luck.

Yes I’m the same. Even if I cut by food down drastically, it still takes months to lose a few pounds!

I’ve been having the same problem. A couple of years ago I gained like 20 lbs, but I associated it with the fact I changed my position at work and wasn’t as active. But over the last month I have gain 10 more. I have tried exercising, changing my diet, but nothing seems to work.
