Hello to all and a major cheer to all the success stories I have just read, and just to say I am totally jealous as well. I am T2 and trying to get the weight down, but just going down then up again, which is relly depressing putting it mildly!!!.
I am now on Victoza, which slows down food going through the digestive tract, and then the large colon is slowed down as well, I might not feel hungry, but my system is so slow. So am I better off on the drug, or not?
I read a post about having to loose half of the body weight, well too have a major amount to loose, and not making any progress. Exercise has been mentioned, and I have another thing wrong with me, Osteoarthritis in the knees, lower back and incredible lower back pain, that makes me feel so sick when it really gets going. What do I do for the best?, the knee docs, want to give me 2 knee replacements, they said loose as much as I can by november (in february they said that), but nothing has worked, the only time I have a flatter stomach, is after the lactolose has work and I have 'been', and then it can be a good few kilos of weight difference,
So what do I do next? lots of splinters while I think, ttfn
