Yes, I can relate. My back is arthritic, but I can walk. My metabolism is gone too. I seriously can't lose at all unless I also cut calories. However, I also find exercise doesn't really help either.
That's the bad news. The good news is, by staying on a mostly-Paleo, low carb diet my health stays good and I don't gain weight (unless I go nuts). I did find a lot of relief from arthritis by going gluten free. Have you tried that?
