Hi @SF73
I lost a couple of kilos in hospital from my bad reaction to the anaesthetic and pain meds - then decided when I got home to get healthier with my diet - cut out food and drink with “ empty” kilojoules ( goodbye soft drinks , cakes, chocolates, takeaway junk food like McDonald’s) and ramped up my consumption of fresh fruit and vegetables Also fresh fish and lean meat and poultry.’
It was hard at first but then I lost more kilos and felt so much better.
Are you a swimmer?
That’s also great exercise and weight bearing exercises are important when we get older - Pilates is another great option.
