Using the 1300 to 1900 method of eating normally but with smaller evening meals that meant the stomach was smaller in the morning but I had a boiled egg and a tomato with warm water before meals for breakfast as I was taking tablets, and then no food until the afternoon at 1300 again. The method allowed me to lose 14 pounds in a month, this has continued more slowly down to 12stone 9 pounds which I was in 1999. During this period also my injections have reduced to no 6 every night, from no15. The blood levels are averaging 7 to 8 per day.
It is funny I like a beef and mushroom curry with boiled rice but that can put on 2 pounds so halve it and only put on 1 pound but it takes maybe a week to get that off!!! Type 2 diabetes thanks for reading this.

Try using chopped steamed cauliflower instead of rice, as that will reduce your intake of carbs considerably.
Ah - I notice you mention injections. Are you using insulin?

Poor grammar, bullying and drunks.
This "1300 to 1900", is this calories or time or...?

Also you mention no6 and no15, what is this? Is it units of insulin?
