Hi, Has or is anyone taking part in this? I've recently started this, I'm onto my 4th week. Settled in quite quickly after the first couple of days. Just wondered how other people were getting on? I'm slightly worried as recently had my bloods done and my hba1c has gone from 69 to 82, however...

So I asked a question on here yesterday, as I really want to tackle my type 2, and weight loss. People took the time to answer and suggested looking at Keto/low carb diets. I have done some research and I am interested to start Keto, although dreading not eating all those lovely carbs haha...

Hi thank you all for the kind words and advice. Keto is something I've considered, but it is daunting as my current favourite foods all seem to be carbs - bread, potatoes, rice etc. I worry that I won't have the will power to stop eating carbs, but I will look into it. I need to do something, as...

Hi, just a bit of background first. I've been type 2 now for almost 2 years and have managed to lose a stone in that time. This has been extremely difficult for me as I'm sure it is for many. I have in fact lost a stone last year, then put it back on, and have now lost it again. I'm currently 18...

Hi Lofrina, Thank you for the kind words. Apologies for taking this long to reply. I'm not big on posting on forums to be honest. But trying. It's been a bumpy few months, I've consistently lost weight, however this has been a lot smaller than I'd like. I've just started the fast 800 this week...

I haven't been given advise on how to lose this weight. This was set by a specialist, but no direction was given. So far I've tried to be in a calorie deficit and walk more. Just beginning to run again, but find this quite difficult due my weight. Going to the gym is more for performing cardio...

I wasn't given any advise this was a target given to me by a specialist, who just advised I needed to lose this weight as quickly as possible, as I have other health issues that are weight related. I've had a little over 14 weeks to achieve just over 2 stone weight loss, however the weight loss...

Thank you. Did you lose the 15kg in the 8 weeks? I have been reading up on the fast 800. I need to lose about 2 stone in 2 months. I'm currently losing about a lb a week, which is good in itself, but my doctor set a target for me to lose and its getting nearer and still have about 2 stone to go...

Cheers for the answers, I see a lot people seem to be going low carb. I have tried this but this was when I was first diagnosed, maybe my heart wasn't really in it at the time. But I struggled, as my diet is so carb dense at the moment. Maybe its time to give it a serious try this time...

Hello all, Relatively newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. After the initial shock, I went through a faze of depression, denial etc. Now I'm in a good place, accepting that I need to make changes. I am currently watching what I eat and have had some success at losing weight. I have recently...

Thanks for reply. Aye just trying wrap my head around it. Diet changes are going to be hard as I love junk food

Hi thanks for the reply, yeah I'm not sure what my hba1c number is yet, waiting for my GP to get back in touch. I've had a read of the link in your signature, some really good stuff in their thank you. At the minute whilst this is all sinking in I'm trying to get as much knowledge as I...

Morning all. Apologies if there are already many threads for this topic, but I don't often use forums to be honest. I have been diagnosed with type 2 this week, still shocked about it to be fair. I would say I have a lot of knowledge about it, a lot of family members have it. My mum has it...
