[QUOTE="Rebecca.., post: 296781, member: 44047"] Hi Jude, I saw a Dietician and she said the weight i had gained was because i am pretty newly diagnosed (March this year). I went down to a skinny size 8 and lost alot of weight before i was diagnosed so she said because i now had my sugar levels back to normal this has caused me to put the weight back on. She didnt really help me tbh because i already knew i would put the lost weight back on but since that i have put another stone on too! :x she also told me off for cutting down on carbs and said i NEED a certain amount of carbs to survive and was eating to few. Since then i have found a very helpful website [url=http://www.yourdiabetes.co/type-1-diabetes-education-and-coaching.php]http://www.yourdiabetes.co/type-1-diabe ... aching.php[/url] you get 30 day free trial so i signed up i am going to cancel after the 30days as its way to expensive, but the diabetes coach has been so helpful i send him food and blood sugar diaries and he has advised me on a diet to work for me. He said i was eating too few calories which was slowing my metabolism down. I have been taking his advice on board and increased my carb and calorie intake slightly and the weight has slowly started to decrease, but it could be a fluke! I do think its a lot harder to shift the weight when your diabetic tho :thumbdown: Rebecca x [/QUOTE]
