I'm doing low carb. Some do keto thou. I tried keto and ended up on more meds for blood pressure, strange I know.Well I am trying to. Do you guys do keto or low carb.
Back to 119.90 after yesterday's 120.90kg.Sorry for the questions this morning.
I was told weight loss would be hard, their not joking.
I have lost this week from 119.20kgs as I'm 118.60kgs this morning so less than 1kg loss thou.
I just need my enthusiasm back.
If anyone finds it please message me. lol
Frustration as not enough money to buy the foods I need, isnt helping.
On a positive note. We had a family day out on a Halloween farm on wednesday. 4yr old still getting over the fact he had to share the go-karts. Kids!
It can be tough to lose weight and then having to keep blood sugars in control too. I think u are amazing for being able to do that. Well doneI'm doing low carb. Some do keto thou. I tried keto and ended up on more meds for blood pressure, strange I know.
Low carb with not too much protein for me. Fat isn't that revelant but I'm not high fat. I have to get mine just right, to lose.
I think some do well on their diet which works for their bgs.
If I get high bgs I never lose. I can even add.
I use my meter and insulin to keep my bgs in good levels. If I'm 4-6mmol/l constantly. I lose. As you can see I really struggle. Seeing dn in november for her input. As not losing without those perfect bgs.

That's the sort of diet if like to follow. Keto hasn't really worked for weight loss with me but it definitely helps with blood sugar control. I like to have a bit more veg then u can on keto.I do low carb - but definitely not keto. No pasta, rice, potatoes etc. Lots of veg, some fruit (very careful about portions) Not high fat - mostly low fat for milk, yoghurt etc - though I'm not so worried about non-animal fats.

I think I was eating (craving) protein on keto so bgs went high not long after starting it.
One day I may try keto again. Never say never.
I might need keto to maintain my weight once I've lost my 5stones I aim to lose. I haven't maintained a huge loss before. I t is ment to be harder than losing. God help me! Ha ha.
I so agree. I love veggies. I don't feel satisfied with a tiny little portion of veggies and loads medium portion of protien and loads of fat. I mean it may be good for lots of people. But not really my thing. I did it for a few months once and as the fat stops u from feeling hungry I want eating very much. And then I got so severely constipated and my hair started falling out.I am far from convinced that eating carrots and other root veg is wrong - keto really isn't for me (she says eyeing up the squash, carrot and onion soup that I made last night for todays lunch - yum!)
I have some time to go yet. For correct bmi I need 9st more off. Consultant will be happy if I get anything more than 3st off. It was 7st thou. He and his team wish me luck. I dont want to let their hardwork down. If I can get another stone off by xmas I'll be happy. It is getting difficult as food money is having to be ploughed elsewhere.@ickihun and @Polgara - I think that anyone who has lost weight positively (as opposed to being a result of being unwell or whatever) is concerned about the "what next?".
I can only speak personally on this, because I haven't discussed it too much, but in my view, the key is not making any big changes at the end of weight loss. Scale up the food a little at a time until the weight stabilises, then work on variations on that theme,
I'm not talking specifically on here, but often people finish their diet, and that first thing that's planned is some sort of treat. It took me a while to stop weight loss, but once I had achieved that I didn't increase my "treats" for quite a while because I was enjoying my food, and wasn't particularly craving anything.
Good luck with it when the time comes.
Endo will check your thyroid again. Let them help.Morning all.
Started 101kgs 29 june 2017
Today 72 kgs
Lost 31 kgs.
I have put on a kg this week.
I have been very much hungrier than usual. And feeling the cold, and very tired. I have had my thyroid levels checked and they are still in normal limits. But I feel that they are too low for me. I asked my gp how they assess the people who take both levothyroxin and metformin and she didnt know what I was talking about. When I explained she actually said " then we will never know, will we". And suggested that I had chronic fatigue syndrome. Have got a referral to an endo but feeling really fed up right now.
Am.really tempted to.follow the example of loads of.people on the healthunlocked site and just buy my own.
Sorry about the moaning.
