@Contralto . I'm confident you will get your aim. You are a very determined person. The fact you care about your health is enough to turn it around.
Metformin is the best tablet for changing brown fat into solvable fat to exercise off. Remind me, can you tolerate metformin?
Secondly not making brown fat helps to continue good health. I think you've read how brown fat is made. Isn't it carbs and fat not used up via the absorbing day? So low calorie only good fat diet.
Brown fat is the fat in fatty liver.
Fatty liver is the best of 2 slides and cirrhosis from nafld was red angry slide hun. Cirrhosis is very very difficult to cure but not impossible, depends how much of the liver is affected. Carbs and heavy constant drugs cause fatty liver. On 50mg of carbs I eradicated my fatty liver. Once I increased my carbs i got it back. Fatty liver inhibits weight loss too as the body isn't performing fully.
Better weight loss once liver is healthy!
Can you sustain 50mg carb diet for a lifetime? I cannot. So I do liver detox periods instead to clear out fatty liver and I keep my carbs at a comfortable level to keep calories down too. My insulin injections process 150mg of carbs. Above that I don't lose weight and struggle with spikes to 8mmol/l+. Obviously metformin helps if I can take it that day.
I'm just so happy I'm losing for a change. It has taken to be on the weight loss programme for bariatric surgery to realise I don't have to put up with my heavy weight, anymore.
I must admit I came to terms being obese decades ago. I just accepted my fate as my mum and sisters are obese too. Mum told me we are fat and that's that.
Strangely I'm the only diabetic.
I'm getting obsessed about weight loss as I'm wanting to weigh myself everyday. I have to fight the urge! Ha ha.
I'm sure you will throttle this liver fat and external fat issue, it starts with reducing carbs to get around it. Too much protein can act like carbs so be careful, unless your building muscle, which adds weight. Keep protein to medium levels. We don't need much for an obese body anyway. Walking with such weight to carry builds muscle, naturally.
