Struggling with weight gain from MS diagnosis

I’m struggling with weight gain from my MS. I used to be active multiple times a week with MMA but I had to cut back and eventually cut out once the MS diagnosis was confirmed. Symptoms were making training difficult. Now I try to do cardio yoga and I’m doing my best to follow AIP, but I’m still stuck at 175 when before I was much smaller and I can’t go back to my MMA routine. I can’t go like that anymore. Anyone have tips on losing weight with MS? If it helps I’m on Dimethyl Fumarate, Lamictal(Lamotrigine), Prozac (Fluoxetine), Prazosin, and Trazodone.

Hi, I'm sure there are physical activities you can do even in your situation. Whether it's short walks or all kinds of other things. I think the combination of this and a healthier diet could help you lose weight. I suggest going to a nutritionist who is also a fitness trainer and he will be able to build you a menu that will be adapted to your illness and abilities.
