Help! I need to lose 50 pounds, but I’m injured and can’t exercise. Any advice on how I can lose the weight?
I need to lose the 50 pounds of weight that I packed on during my pregnancy to get to my goal weight of 120 pounds. I have 2 problems. I’m breastfeeding so I can’t restrict my calorie intake too much and I’m also injured. I have 2 herniated disks in my lower back and because of this I have a really horrible case of sciatica. To sabotage my efforts even further I have a debilitating case of endometriosis that leaves me doubled over in pain on an almost daily basis. So basically I’m in pain from my lower back down almost all of the time and I’m exhausted from being a new mom. How can I drop this weight without working out? Is there some weight training that I could do with my arms or something? I have no idea how to handle this so any advice would be wonderful.
Thank you!
You don’t need to work out to lose weight. It just helps the process along. Even a mild execrise like walking will help.
Also, the breastfeeding helps you lose weight. Milk production will require alot of calories and you have alot of extra energy stored in the left over pregnancy weight so dont worry too much about a calorie reduced diet. Just take your vitamins , drink a good amount of water and eat healthy. You will notice the weight drop.
