How to lose fat with a Bursitis in my right hip.

I have a Bursitis in my right hip and my Doctor told me no Cardio or working out my legs. Last time I cut those out of my work out I went up to 20% body fat. I plan to still work out my calves but I know that won't be enough to keep my body fat low.

Can someone help me with advice on how to keep my body fat low during these times. I don't eat sugar, most fats. Egg whites with 2 whole eggs every morning with a 4-6 meals a day of protein, carbs, and fruits and veggies. I'll post more info if someone needs to help me out more.

Thank you

work out all parts you can without affecting your condition and if you want to keep bodyfat down keep your calories to maintenance and still get your protein in. If you stay within maintenance then you wont gain fat

Figure your BMR and activity levels and adjust to be in deficit. Cardio is soooo over rated for fat loss and is helpful, but not needed.

I get bursitis in my right knee on and off for the last 18 years.

Bursitis is a bitch isn't it?

Watch your diet, calories in vs calories out.

My doctor told me to take up swimming for cardio ( no jogging/running or squats)

Yeah Bursitis is a major bitch. Never had any problems and this screws me up. I order a heart rate monitor that keeps count of the calories I burn so I can accurately no how much I need.

Thanks for the help.

Just eating at maintenance should keep you from gaining weight, but more importantly is what you'll be doing to fix the problem. I've had bursitis in my right hip twice and it's definitely something you don't want lingering around. Be sure to take the appropriate time off and follow a good stretching and strengthening routine to correct the problem. This will ensure the best results in the long run. Good Luck.
