Hi all,
Been on LCHF since my diagnosis a couple of weeks ago, and it’s doing amazing things for my BG levels - I’m now a consistent mid 5 with mid/high 6 after meals. And the trend is still dropping.
My problem is that one of my most concerning symptoms at diagnosis was weight loss - 8kg in a 5 months or so. And the weight still seems to be dropping off me - I’m quite slim already so would like to stop this.
Any extra ideas on how I can increase weight?
Is the answer to just eat more often?
I’m type 2 (type 1 not ruled out) and currently refusing meds to see what I can do with diet and exercise alone.
