Hello again,
I haven't posted here since sometime before the Covid lockdowns and I need to lose weight and get my blood sugar under control again. I was coping with low carb until the first lockdown when bread came back into my diet. Since then I have gained another stone in weight and I've almost given up trying to control my diabetes. At my last diabetic review by HbA1c was only 50 but my cholesterol was over 8 and the nurse freaked out!
I need to lose weight - about 2 stones - to improve my blood sugar and cholesterol but I don't know how best to do it. Low carb gave me good results but I found it difficult to stick to. Low calorie diets seem to get good results too but counting calories is a relentless chore.
I just need some encouragement that I can do this again. Thanks.
