Hi, I have had type two for about 20 years I control it with insulin and metformin. 3.5 years ago when I had a heart attack I was almost 22 stone having survived this I decided to do something about my weight I was taking 240 units of insulin a day since then my weight has decreased to 15 st 4 lbs and my insulin has reduced to just 30 units a day at age 72 I feel really great and have all this energy so losing weight really does work and I'm hoping to lose a further 2.5 stone.
