A:You present a complicated medical history, but your one clear need is to reduce your very considerable overweight. This would immediately improve a number of your problems, including your blood sugar levels, your blood pressure and some of your bone pains. Dealing with weight reduction in your circumstances, particularly your inability to take exercise,is never easy. I am sure that you should eat considerably less than 2200 calories. Good advice from a dietician is really important in this situation. I can however suggest to the key recommendation is the reduction of fatty foods, which would include fried foods, butter, and various oils and cooking oils. They all contain large amount of calories and greatly contribute to overweight. I do hope this advice will help you.
