So....I have been type 2 for a few tears but it's really only the past few months I have actually tried to deal with the issue.

I have been reading these forums fir a while and adopted the low carb regime etc but find the weight isn't falling off as it seems to For others and this got me thinking to the other conditions I have.

I have PCOS which makes people put on belly fat and bad yellow fat at that which is harder to shift.....grrrr.

The next isn't really a condition as most women will have experience of it but it's contraception. I am temporarily on the depo injection as my implant is stuck in my arm (I broke it somehow and the Dr can't remove it!!). One of the side effects of the depo is weight gain....great!!

I know that this means I have to work harder to lose weight and have finally come to peace with that fact but it does sometimes get to me when I feel that my nurse and GP seem to think it's as easy as flicking a switch!!

Rant over, I'm off to enjoy the sunshine
