Weight loss with back injury

Hey I didn't really know where to post it that was the most relevant for my title, but I was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease a few years ago when I was 19 and just over a year ago I took a break from the gym as recommended by a physician and I stopped going for jogs because it'd be uncomfortable and there are times where even walking on the treadmill will be a bit uncomfortable to the point where I just say it's not worth it so I just try to make up for the lack of exercise by eating right. But a few months ago I put on 20 pounds and last week I finally lost half of that by just watching what I eat and trying to remain even slightly active, but in the last week I managed to put those 10 pounds back on so now I'm back where I was when I first started. I know most of what I've just gained is water weight but it's so demoralising when I try so hard to lose weight and on top of that I can't really do the things I loved to help me with that such as running. Running before I stopped was the main thing that kept me in shape and for a while I ran almost every chance that I could. Now that I've seen what my weight currently is, I just want to go and do more than just sit here eating right. I want to do something active for as long as possible to get to where I want to be. I love cardio and I was very consistent with it, but I just don't feel like walking even when I feel fine to do so does anything for me in terms of weight loss. I don't really know what to do aside from getting back to eating healthy, but it just doesn't feel enough.
