I was diagnosed Type 2 on June 8th last year and came straight home from GP in a state of shock and found this forum - the best move ever!!!!
I've been on a low carb regime since then and over the first 12 months I lost 23 kilos, and went down from size 28 to 18/16 and my HbA1c is down from 83 to 42. So that's really positive.
But since then, over the past 4 months, the weight loss has stopped and I'm hungry most of the time and I'm starting to feel depressed and not sleeping well. Whatever I do the weight just won't shift..... I'm 63 years old, 5ft 1' and weigh 12 stone - so I do need to lose more weight. How can I 'kick start' weight loss again?..... any ideas gratefully received. Thank you
