Message: <blockquote data-quote="DanW13" data-source="post: 2536336" data-attributes="member: 531379">Was prediabetic rather than diabetic but like you rapidly lost weight when I went low carb & struggled to get sufficient calories to provide energy for regular exercise & stop weight loss. I slid from 13 stone to 10 stone 4lb in around 6 months! Since then stayed at same weight for nearly 2 years despite of anything doing more exercise!Fact is the body takes time (up to 12 months IMO) to evolve to the new low carb diet, so give it time. Up healthy fats in meantime to slow/stop weight loss, I used nuts, avocados, chia seed, nut spread, oily fish etc.Also make sure you do weight training/muscle strengthening so you don’t burn muscle & lose weight that way. I did that unfortunately & haven’t got it back yet.All the best.</blockquote>
