About five years ago, I was under the hospital to have a gastric bypass to help with my weight issues. However, I never had the operation, as I have many issues with depression which could not be resolved and the hospital felt it best to wait until I was in a better position in relation to this before going ahead with the op. In order to start the weight loss programme, I started using weight loss meal replacement shakes. I use the Tesco version of Slimfast, but only have one per day for breakfast. Does anyone know if these are ok to continue with now that I have been diagnosed with T2 Diabetes? They are made with skimmed milk. I haven't seen any dips or peaks in my blood sugar levels, which remain between 4 and 8 (usually between 5 and 7). I just didn't want to give them up if I don't need to, nor continue with them if they are not good for me due to my Diabetes.
Any advice appreciated.
