    Weight loss issues after extreme case of covid

    57 years old and spent 2 weeks in hospital with extreme case of covid
    Went in at 230 pounds in decent shape (lifting and 1 hour of cardio a day)
    Ate everything in site about 7,000 calories a day while in hospital come out weighing 205 with a o2 tank and a walker

    Out of work for 4 months gained back up to 260 pounds of mostly fat

    Prior to Covid I could easily lose 5 pounds a week by keto and weights with 45 mins cardio ( have lost up to 7 pounds per week for 10 consecutive weeks by diet and cardio alone

    Fast forward to now

    I lift 5 days a week heavy weights
    Strict keto with zero cheats
    90 mins everyday on 15% incline at 3.1 mph

    I’m only losing .75 pounds a week and this is maddening

    Any insights on how to get my metabolism fixed
    Taking 700 mg test and150 mg tren every other day as well

    You need to get off the keto for at least six months. Go on a high protein moderate complex carb low fat diet. Change won't happen overnight but it will come and you will be healthier and feel better in the long run.

        End of year goal is 225 weight at 6 ft 4 and 15% or lower bf

        I’ll swap up diet as mentioned above to see if this kick starts some loss
