Aw Kelly, I really feel your pain. I have been diabetic for nearly 20 years and I still find it a massive struggle to control.
I too like you struggle to lose weight. The way I explain it is if I eat like a 'normal' person and healthily at that, I still gain weight, I feel like in order for me to try to lose weight I practically have to starve myself! and even then the scales hardly budge.
I have been trying to do low carb high fat but again the weight isn't shifting and I find it soooooo restrictive. The only good thing about it is that my sugars stabilise the best they have ever been since being diabetic.
However, I amd sick and tired of eggs for breakfast so thought I would maybe just have a few more carbs and introduce a mullerlight light today (12g) and my sugars went mental!
I wish there was a fix all for it but I just don't see where there is. I really hope you manage to get things sorted but at least you can come here and vent on here and we all understand.
And..if you do find something that works them please let me know xxx
