Help me help my mom lose weight “without exercise”

Hello redditors! My mom (62) just had back surgery and she needs to lose about 45 pounds/20kg rather quickly (but sustainably).

She can barely walk right now (literally has trouble standing up for more than 5 minutes) but that’s going to improve soon.

I understand food myself, but I never had to lose weight so I want to help without being too harsh (or an idiot).

Whats the best way to help someone who isn’t going to count calories in the long term?
