Been Diagnosed with Type 1.5 Diabetes - few months ago Levels wouldn't come below 25 for some reason .... lost about 4 stone - currently at 21st so still have a lot to loose - some days I feel very fat but I try to overcome this with drinking more water and trying to think healthy - Starting swimming next week so hopefully this will speed up my weightloss and make me feel better, also been looking into the Paleo diet - looks a bit to fuddy duddy thou.


Currently eating

Eggs and bacon for breakfast

Salad, chicken for Lunch

Whatever i want for my Tea ( Wife Cooks )

Lowered my carb intake - used to eat loads of bread n Wheat - now i don't eat any only in and Emergency.

Thought i would introduce myself ... Have a nice day and make sure you stay away from SUGAR!!

Hi and welcome. Sounds like you may be a mix T1 and T2 rather than Late onset T1 as such? With excess weight you probably have some insulin resistance which can conflict with the insulin until the weight comes down. Well done for the weight reduction so far and keep up the low-carb diet. Can you let us know what insulin regime you are on and if Basal/Bolus are you carb-counting?
 
Welcome, Stu! Sounds you are doing very well. :cool:
