[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1685602, member: 355878"] All my life I have had people telling me I was overweight - even when I had a 24 inch waist and was working as a roadie, and could carry a speaker cabinet in each hand or a drunken guitarist over my shoulders - or - not at the same time. There are limits. I was threatened with being put in hospital for eating low carb during pregnancy, and I caved in and was really ill with pre-eclampsia. I was still accused of eating wrongly even though I'd had an absolutely ideal pregnancy up to that point and my first child was a poster baby. When I was put on various diets I was always ill in a few weeks - sometimes in a few days - but the HCPs simply refused to believe that it was their healthy low fat high carb low calorie diet making me feel so dire. On a cholesterol reducing diet just before diagnosis I reached 264lb - but I was only tested for diabetes by accident - I should have had a thyroid test. As soon as I stopped the cereals and wholemeal bread I felt as though I was surfacing from a deep dive. [/QUOTE]
