Rebekah discusses your questions related to lipedema and nutrition. Is the keto diet good for lipedema? What should I eat if I have lipedema? What not to eat with lipedema? How much fat should I eat? What is a good lipedema diet? She shares her experience, the importance of exploring food sensitivities, and what worked to help her lose more than 100 pounds and improve her lipedema and lymphedema symptoms.
Remember to work with your own care team to figure out what will work best for you. Rebekah is not a doctor or a nutritionist and this is solely her experience. Your body is different.

just celebrated my 5th keto-versary this month! lost 110 pounds over 2 years - slower than most and on purpose to really just make 1 change at a time and make it a habbit before changing something else. Then I maintained for almost 3 years, and 2 months ago I stopped dairy and almond flour and lost 15 more pounds! crazy! there are so many versions of keto and so many options and more recipes available than you will ever have time to try! my goal was to try 1 new recipe per week. keeps it interesting and adventurous! keto has given me freedom from 27 health issues! including type 2 diabetes and low thyroid! I'm never hungry and never have cravings because I actually give my body the nourishment it needs, all while out-eating the men in my house! haha! I just can't imagine ever going back to my old life! keto for life!❤🎉

Same for me. I started in August with keto and only found out a month ago that I have lipedema. My doc fat shamed me a d told me to take diet pills. Which thankfully idid t take. I have been in the emergency services in hospital few times for my swollen legs, they didn't know what was wrong with me, but just wanted to give me Cortison. I refused. Today I ha e lost 3 sizes on the keto. My legs still swell but I have bought some compression leggins and massage my legs almost every night. Since I lost weight I can really feel the diseased fat that was hiding underneath 😢 It's so sad. I am getting more compassionate with my body which is awesome and I'm even starting to exercise (trampoline) which give me happy hormones 😂

Thank you Rebekah for sharing your experience and information. I was never medically diagnosed with lipedema but the more I learn about it, there is no doubt that I do have it. And I agree with you and now it makes more sense than ever why diets never worked for me until I stumbled upon the keto and carnivore diet. They are the only diets that i see my body react to, But unfortunately I don't see that the adipose clumps really go away and maybe the only way to intervene on them is surgically. I currently take supplements to help the lymphatic system which I see help with heaviness and pain And I just hope that by combining food, supplements, dry brushing, vibrating plate it doesn't get worse over time...

there are compression leggings [ on amazon and elsewhere] that help as well. there are medical grade and also much more comfortable ‘normal’. compression leggings WITH POCKETS! and patterns. if you add those to everything you’re doing, they will help, tho’ ultimately yes, surgery is the only treatment that buys time by removing enough so that it’s a reset. just had the front of my thighs done and i can see my KNEECAPS for the first time in decades.

Monk fruit doesn't spike your insulin. I use Monk fruit and erythrotol mixture that my grocery store carries. What I used for two weeks to get over the sugar cravings in the evening was a cup of coffee with a small piece of 90% cocao bar (Lindt) tbls of butter, heavy cream and a tsp of monk fruit. Tastes like hot chocolate and really helped me alot.

Have you photos of before and after ? I believe my grandmother actually died with this...and my mother has been told (for decades) she has lymphedema . She has been given so many diuretics and now has massive kidney stones...and her legs remain the same. I believe she has been misdiagnosed since any early age. My grandmother was in agony. I remember her massive legs and her extreme discomfit. The only thing which doesn't fit too well...is bruising. I can't recall either having much bruising ? They are not 'fat' people, with very slim upper halves and their legs are too 'straight with weight' if I was to describe it.

I did keto for over two years and I was frankly miserable the whole time. I had great results (in terms of weight loss), but the whole time my mental state was just awful. I then transitioned to no wheat, no potatoes, just brown rice, whole grains (rye, barley, buckwheat) and it was a LOT better (basically mediterranean diet). Due to the keto, I had developed a b12 deficiency anemia and am severely D vitamin deficient. At the moment, I'm eating normally, avoiding only processed foods and sugar, taking high doses of B12, vit D, zinc and magnesium and I can function so much better, no food sensitivities, BUT the weight is back. I have no intention of returning to keto, the depression is too much for me, and I'm wondering if anyone else has any success with any other method of eating?

@samanthakitch4736 you are 100% right that recommendations should be paired with an elimination diet.

@connieyoung9740 I do some sort of movement everyday, whether it is running, walking, or strength training. For me, exercise is not about weight loss but rather stress relief and lymph flow. For ideas of good exercises for lipedema check out my video here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jc6lgdhyy82ugJc.html

I understand that you can lose a lot of weight doing keto, but it's concerning that the diet has been ranked worst for heart health. Keto diets more than double the risk of serious heart problems. Fiber, which keto is lacking, is important for so many things, including the gut microbiome. I know people who do keto say they feel great, etc. but not much is known about its long-term effects. From everything I've read, it's not meant to be a long-term diet. There are safer ways to lose weight than keto.❤️

I was told that Keto should not be done long term when I was told that I had Lipedema.. If you have heart disease or any other heart conditions, than Keto is not advisable but everyone has to find out what works for them, one size does not fit all. Sending hugs to everyone in our community x

I've been on keto for 3 years. I had an ultrasound by a cardiologist who said that my ultrasound was the best she's seen in a long time. I also no longer have non alcoholic fatty liver. That is my experience.

Everything that you wrote is not accurate although it can be seen in Legacy Media. Don't take anyone's word for it do your own research. You seem very articulate and caring.

Media and medical have been misinforming the public because they are paid by big food companies and pharmaceutical. Please look up Dr. Eric Westman on KZfaq for insight on Ketogenic diet.

Hi @jessica3636! You might want to check out a book called The Big Fat Surprise amzn.to/4bSgZgI Nina Teicholz does a great job breaking down the science, history, and politics behind our current diet recommendations. Speaking for my experience, I can say my lab results have never been better and I'm certain I am healthier than when I weighed 300+ pounds. Good luck finding what works best for you and your body 💕
