@brettsza I don't know what your portions are like, but I wonder if you are eating enough of everything, including fat? Are you calorie counting? With such a low carb consumption you need a lot of fat or your body will go in to starvation mode, you won't lose weight and your liver will keep your glucose levels up as you haven't eaten enough energy promoting foods. Try increasing your fat for a while and see what happens.
Hi BT
My portion sizes are not massive, 4 mushrooms in the morning a bowl of soup or a small bowl of lentils or chicken, they are not laced with fat to be honest as I am gaining weight so reduced butter in them but with such low car and medium fat I expected to loose a little so came down to soups now which has 1 scraping of butter for 3 or 4 times of soup and low carb too
As far as starvation mode is concerned I should still be able to loose weight on that shouldnt I
My stomach is rock hard may be coz of metformin and my eyes are burning and since I am into IT this does not help a bit as I am staring into the screen all day long but I increased from one screen to two to reduce the strain.
I called the GP yesterday and I told him I need appointment as my eyes are burning and my stomach is very hard, they said closest is after 3 weeks coz next two weeks are completely booked.
I also thought few weeks ago I might have IBS as i have pain in stomach and I wanted to get the slow release version of metformin but docs in my area are too busy, they do not want to give appointment for the third week and they do not have anything available for next two.
