Fasting is good but before going that route talk with your doctor first because fasting is not for everyone,,,, I found for myself walking and exercise keeps my weight down and definitely a change in the foods I eat,,,, I'm an advent fish chicken and salad lover and there's so many ways to prepare, ,,,but I wish you well in your weight loss journey ❀

@A myHIVteam Member I read an article a couple years back that said some of the meds increase your visceral fat and fat around organs which is hard to loose. I found that IF targets that alot faster. I was working out every day and it seemed the muscle was on top of the fat.
