High iron diet and losing weight Any women here who are anaemic but also want to lose weight? Looking for diet advice on how to balance getting enough iron in my diet while also losing weight. I lost weight last year and plateaus at 70kg and maintained it but became anaemic again and very ill which has caused me to gain weight due to not being able to exercise. I'm now the heaviest I've been at 77kg and not happy about it. Diet advice seems so contradictory, you need to eat lean meat and chicken to lose weight, but lean meats don't have enough iron, and the iron rich foods are red meat, stewing steaks, black pudding etc which are really high in calories. Trying to balance my diet feels impossible right now. I've been struggling with my iron for years despite changing my diet to include high iron foods. I'm also struggling with how boring lunches are. I find supermarket sandwiches near my work don't fill me up and taste so bland, and don't have the time to make soup every day.…
