Six months back I was diagnosed with ME/CFS. I am lucky enough that it has not left me bed ridden. I am increasingly aware of those things that make me worse. However, if I do not any exercise I am prone to melancholia, for this reason it is really important that I get out regularly. Also, being laid up in bed for 6 months means I have put on more weight than I had already gained. ME sufferers often need to eat more.
I am really struggling as I do not want to put weight on anymore but have no real means of losing it. I go out for walks as my way to lose it but feel that it is never really going to happen for me.
My diet is pretty simple, I eat muselli for breakfast (with juice not milk), protein based food with vegetables at lunch time and carbohydrate meals with vegetables in the evening.
Does any one have any suggestions on how else I can lose weight? Based on my ability to walk between 3 - 5 miles a day how long will it take, and will I even manage to lose weight?
