You need to expand your knowledge base. I was not overweight when I developed lymphedema, just pregnant. Lipedema didn’t become obvious until I was 60 and it was and is more obvious in my upper body.
I have this! I have all the symptoms! This explains a lot of my battle with weight loss! It certainly explains why some people cannot really just eat what they want.. and this year is my first winter being lazy and definitely not exercising has made me so stiff and swollen I finally had like a full blown pitted edema attack! My feet hurt from sitting! How is that possible I wondered. AND I hit full menopause. Before this I used to work on my feet, my whole life, all my jobs except two, but I was very annoyed I was heavy at all because I was pretty active compared to most people. I hated those desk jobs.. because I got so big in the butt and legs and I had constant aches and pains all over, made me feel slow and sicker. Crazy..fortunately I like to garden a lot, take walks, and do yoga and chase around my grandchildren.. well i took a break, not even three months and the last month I blew up! I’m telling this to my daughter, hey I swelled up in the last month..she was nice about it, but like most people just thought I’m not being careful what I eat. Well I have to say I can see how I was suffering from these symptoms since I was young. Not as bad as many, and I think activity must be part of it. I am no athlete, but I was in the military and had a physically active job, then I worked in nursing, then I had kids…
I'm 4 ft 11 in tall 57 years old. With Lipedema starting weight 214 . I've started a more strict carnivore diet called the lion diet couple weeks ago. Started dropping weight on the lion diet and 72 hr fast. I'm now 203. 4 days or so a week I eat beef, goat, lamb, and a small amount of pork belly. I do use single item spices oils i use if from the meat i cook. What I drink is several verities of water, depending on how much ice I use including shaved ice to no ice. If I want soda I drink waterloo carbonated water, only on eating days. Sunday starting at 5 pm no food till Thursday after 8 am. I know it's more than 72 hrs. I check glucoseseveral times a day and ketons once a day. Glucose stays below 117 some fasting days drops to 68. I'm only 5 days into counting these. My family Dr approved this diet along with my oncologist, my neurologist my rheumatologist and my gynecologist as long as i get blood work done on a regular basis. I'm feeling amazing. My joint pain from arthritis is almost gone. A year ago I was low carb carnivor, but not dropping weight. Can't weight to see what this anti inflammatory diet brings me. 80 pounds to go.

I have Lipedema and Lymphedema both. Tried everything. Literally the only thing that works is the Carnivore diet. Only diet I can lose any weight or inches on.
So grateful for your pound of cure program. I am down from 258 to 157 in 8 months. I have never been healthier or happier. I follow Erin on my level 10 life. You guys pairing up is a win for everyone would love!!!! to see you guys combine your theories and write a book!! Also looking forward to more videos of you two together ❤ Thank you Dr Weiner!
So is keto better? I've tried keto, and even when eating healthy keto, it's like my body hates it! I consistently have headaches, high blood pressure because my body won't hold onto enough electrolytes and I have to drink them which stresses the kidneys, Hair fall, bad skin, stank breath and body odors, ugh! I considered plant based because nothing else seems to be working to get my body weight to budge, and doctors aren't believing me about how little or infrequent I eat. But after reading how veganism and plant based made yalls health worse, I'm scared 😭
@@Honey-Bee-25 you might benefit from a keto coach for lipedema. It needs to be individualized for you because people with lipedema cannot eat some of the nightshades, dairy, nuts, etc in keto, and there are certain supplements needed as well as certain kinds and amounts of electrolytes. Been doing this 6.5 years

Lipedema also occurs in upper arms.
I have it in my forearms. It’s so painful!

How I can join pound of cure it’s free to join please???
Do you have lipedma and did you see improvement in your legs?
I have it on my arms
Thanks you sir
Liposuction helped my mobility, but physically you don’t see a difference
Carnivore, 0 carbs. Is the best bet !!!!
I developed sudden onset lymphedema of both legs after a year of strict vegan, plant-based diet. Coincidence? Maybe.
For me it is lipedema after veganism.
So is keto better? I've tried keto, and even when eating healthy keto, it's like my body hates it!

It got so much worse after 4 month of raw vegan diet,still can't get back to " normal" after more than a year. worse decision of my life!

Hi there thank you for sharing what nightshades do you avoid eating? And what vitamins do you use?
