[QUOTE="TrinMonroe, post: 896255, member: 189772"] Hey Kelly...i hear you and i know exactly how you feel. I am Type 2 and i have pcos so i have always struggled with my weight but i was always happy where i was...then i was put on insulin about 2 years ago and i have put on 4 stone...i feel so down and depressed about it..and no one really understands how you feel. I buried my head in the sand and i really regret it now because i carried on eating like i wasnt really diabetic and now i have problems with my eyes. I have been on a low carb diet for almost four weeks and my sugar levels have come right down and i have finally managed to lose half a stone (7lbs). I have even managed to lower my insulin too. I recently broke down with my diabetic nurse and said i feel like coming off the insulin altogether so she has referred me to a specialist team with a doctor and dietician to discuss about going on a new drug which helps with weight loss with insulin. By the way...you look fab on your pic...please dont feel like you are alone and i have found on here you get some great advice and help. :) [/QUOTE]
