[QUOTE="Winnie53, post: 2029137, member: 160246"] Okay, that's all helpful information. The only way I know to stop weight loss is to add more fat. For me that would be avocado, green olives, peanut butter or almond butter, cheese, raw nuts, or butter straight from the fridge. When I'm stressed, things that help are getting outside and walking, even if it's only 10 minutes. Pace varies. May be brisk or I may walk slow to focus on my breathing to focus on the grass, trees, animals, and sky - (I work and live in older areas of our city so this is possible). Nutritional supplement strategies for me when stressed would be a good quality B-complex, fish oil, and magnesium. To battle inflammation, I'd take cucurmin. The salt is important too. I don't eat processed foods and cook from scratch. I always forget to add salt. That may not be a problem for you, but it is for me. Headaches are a clue that that's part of what's going on. I've never checked my c-peptide level to see if I'm producing adequate insulin but you could do that for peace of mind. I do however monitor my inflammation status with a highy sensitive C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP) test. Having your doctor run a Comprehensive Metabollic Panel would be a way to rule out infection. I have a condition called subclinical hyperthyroidism, so managing stress is an ongoing challenge for me. It doesn't take much stress to get me doing shallow breathing which just makes things worse. When life is challenging at work I definitely have a harder time managing glucose levels. [/QUOTE]
