i was in the V1 group when this started back in 2009, updating what happened 15 years later.

1. I do regain some weight but never back to the peak of 115kg
2. my lowest weight was at 83kg but it was not sustainable and i am feeling lethargic all the time
3. I am maintaining my weight around 88kg, still at BMI of 28 but I target to lose about 3-4kg more
4. I felt great this round because I am losing weight slowly, about 1kg / month.
5. I have tried extreme diet such as keto but it does not works for me because I still want to live like a normal person traveling and not constanly worrying about food
6. I am started to add in weighted exercise it helps to tone up my body, i do looked leaner but the needle on the weighing scale does not really reflect that.
7. Cardio is good but too much of it does little to your bodyweight. I have done long distance swimming (>10km) or 100km trail running, or long hours of hiking.
8. watching what you eat is more important, learn to study food labels, understand what you are eating. I do eat unhealthy snacks or even sweets but I know what is going into my body
9. Unfortunately for today's lifestyle change with minimal movement around and more food availability, body weight management become a continuous effort, no point to fuss about a sudden spike weight, we look at the long term.
10. Sleep enough and drink enough
11. cut alcohol consumption when necessary because it is always associated with junk calories and unhealthy finger food

Good luck guys

Lately in social media, i saw many advertisement for this called KETOZEN.

It said can reduce weights foe eldery.

I never heard about this product before and it is hard to believe just a pill can do that.

Anyone here can advice what is this KETOZEN?

Recently, no matter how I workout and diet, my weight is not moving.

Usually it called as weight loss plateau, which means your body already get used to current diet and exercise.
Congratulations for this stage.. which means your journey went well. Just need adjust diet again or intensify workout to stimulate the muscle again.

Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this, but I'm hoping to get some advice on losing weight / building strength while having movement restrictions due to hip osteo-arthritis.

I can't hinge my hips, so I can't do exercises like burpees, squats, etc... anything that requires lifting/raising my legs or squatting down.

I'm able to swim, but can only do the freestyle kind of kicking with my legs; breast stroke style kicking places too much strain on my hip joints. When I swim nowadays, I'll either stick to freestyle or wear a Decathlon snorkel so I can still do the breast stroke motion with my arms while kicking like in freestyle with my legs.

I tried elliptical trainers, and although they're less painful than treadmills or step machines, the movement is still a bit painful on my hip joints.

My weight training seems limited to upper body and core (at least the exercises that don't involve leg raises, etc). Are there any other exercises or cardio activity that I can try that won't aggravate my hip joints?

I am not sure how long since you have had this OA, but it sounds like recent and such - do keep it to lightweight. You can do squats but keep it to shallow - so either put a box or bench and start from there. You can do seated position and stand up with weights and slowly work towards strengthening of the muscles.

As for cardio - you should just stick to walks and your swimming for now given the pain and its not worth aggravating the injury further.

I found a study that made participants went through some exercise training (with the program included) which seems to yield very decent improvement. Perhaps you can use that as a basis: [Exercise Training in Treatment and Rehabilitation of Hip Osteoarthritis: A 12-Week Pilot Trial] sorry can't link.
