[QUOTE="Libbyloo, post: 123106, member: 25200"] Hi all skinny T2's!! I'm another.(5' 10" currently 9st and getting lower every week, having lost approx a stone over the last few months). Like you, I'm eating like a horse (low carbs and plenty of fruit and veg with lean meat and fish) but still not managing to stop the weight loss. I'm also lactose intolerant, so I use soya milk products, goats milk and sheep milk cheese etc so a bit limited in terms of spreading dollops of cream on everything etc. I'm on 2x 500mg metformin and 2x80mg gliclazide daily. The GP and DN have been very helpful but are concerned at my continued weight loss and have referred me to the Diabetic clinic at the local hospital (my appointment is on 15th March) as they think I may need insulin. I'm not convinced about this, as my bg levels are beginning to come down from around 16 at the New Year. Have any of you been given similar advice? If so have you any tips or queries I should raise when I go? Thanks for the tips everyone has posted, especially the almond flour cake recipe, I'll give that a whirl. Libbyloo [/QUOTE]
