*cat for attention* help me lose weight!
Hey everyone I have POTS and a heart condition that make it really hard to lose weight because some days I can barely walk and I need to eat a shit ton of salt to maintain a steady heart rate.
How do I lose weight?
I have access to a stepper, exercise bands, and some light weights :( but aside from that I’m completely dumbfounded especially when I can barely use the stepper for more than three minutes because of my health.
Any ideas?
Living with POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) can significantly impact your weight loss journey. It's essential to prioritize your health while finding ways to stay active. Incorporating low-impact exercises, such as seated workouts and resistance bands, can help maintain muscle strength without exacerbating symptoms. Focus on a well-balanced diet rich in nutrients and consider consulting with a healthcare professional or a nutritionist for personalized advice. Staying hydrated and managing salt intake could also play a crucial role in stabilizing your heart rate. Lastly, connecting with others in similar situations can provide motivation and support, making your weight loss efforts feel less isolating and more attainable.
