Bit of a mess and needing advice re duromine

I am f38. Suffer PTSD. I take 300mg lyrica each day and suffer fibro issues. I weigh 87kg at 5"5 Forever tired. I want to try duromine to drop down to 70. I know how to eat and drink healthy. Its the exercise part I struggle to do to help with weith loss. Ideally I want to drop the weight which will put less strain on my body. Is it a good idea to use duromine to do this? Im depressed about my body. Stupid lyrica has knocked so many aspects of me so I want to make a change. I want to feel sexy again.

I also feel that being over weight has made my fibro pain worse. I never used to struggle with pain until I gained weight. I was 92 but slowly gone down due to intermitted fasting. I know clean eating is a huge part of weight loss which is the easy part most of the time. I would drink up to 3L of water a day

So clean eating, no sugar, plenty of water and intermitted fast will help. The exercise part will be the hardest until I struggle with less pain.

Any advice is welcome 🙏

Is it too much to try and lose weight and gain muscle at the same time?

I’m 27M, 5’11” 278lbs, I started a weight loss plan back in May where I was 320lbs. I was doing well in the gym at that time, hit PRs on most of everything lifting wise, but my weight was going up too. I kinda gave up weightlifting in favor of losing weight exclusively. Tried to get back into the gym and man have I lost a lot of strength.

Should I just continue focusing on losing weight or should I go for a mix and try to build back some of the strength that I’ve lost? 200lbs is my goal weight.

I guess my main concern is whether or not I’ll sabotage myself and never lose the weight as it’s really the thing getting in the way of my confidence. Muscles are just a plus

I feel bad for my mom

My mom just started working out and got a personal trainer and I've started helping her count calories and used a tdee calculator to help her and dude, she has to eat a pretty good amount less than me because of how little she is, she's 5ft the way weight loss and calorie counting works is crazy. I'm already kinda going nuts in a calorie deficit now I'm glad I'm not short. How many calories do y'all eat in a calorie deficit? I'm currently going for about 1 pound of weight loss a week and am hanging on I can't wait until I reach where I want to be so I can finally eat at maintenance.

Doubting a dietician

I had a dietician (Dr) recommended to me and she created a meal plan for me to lose 10kg weight and said I need to be eating 1600kcal daily.

For context I have PCOS so the focus is on protein and healthy fats, limiter carbs to prevent big insulin spikes. I’m 5”2 and 76kg.

I’m doing the diet and following the measurements for all the foods on the plan, but when I log it into MyFitnessPal, it comes up as 1100-1300 kcal a day. The logging is accurate, so has she overestimated the calories in the meals?? I don’t feel hungry but I don’t want my weight loss to be dangerous or unsustainable.

What do you think? Trust her or trust the actual calorie count?

Weight Loss Journey

Found myself at a terrible 310lbs a few months back after a few years of terrible eating, two knee surgeries (three total in my life), and just being self-pitying all the time. Breaking point was when I legitimately got short of breath going up my steps. I'm 6'3, 27 years old, and am down nearly 40lbs since I started my deficit a few months back! Current weight is 275lbs and my goal weight is about 225-235lbs. Diet is simply a 1500 calorie deficit that has a decent amount of protein to prevent significant muscle loss. For my size, that's probably too much deficit, but I feel better, I'm starting to look better, I take vitamins to curb any deficits my restricted calories might bring, and I'm no longer about to drop after going up my steps😂 Any tips or advice would be great! Fixing to start back into the gym in a few days to help the process along and eventually do a clean bulk to put back on muscle🤙

Losing weight in rehab

Hey everyone, I’m in a long term residential rehab. We have three meals a day prepared here, though the meals are often made w/o salt, made of things like grilled chicken, white rice, French fries, chicken tenders, salad. No sweets. All stuff that generally won’t disrupt someone with diabetes / high cholesterol. I’ve been here 3 months and have lost 20 pounds! I think because the eating routine is so rigid, it’s easier than when I’m at home and I can eat anything at any time. Just wanted to pass it on-rehab is a great weight loss device LOL (no but really, getting sober has made me so so much healthier)
