I lost a lot of weight in the first few months on low carb, but nothing for the last 9 months. I am still obese and my waist measurement is out of proportion to the rest of me and big enough to cause my GP surgery staff to mutter at me - I lost proportionally a lot more weight from my legs, arms, face, etc.
But my triglycerides went down, and in addition to being in remission I had a liver scan recently and my fatty liver has resolved too.
Tricia, I don't know how long, or even if your weight has been at a stable point?
I know, post-diagnosis my love handles melted away, then some more, and the result was(and is), I'm very slight.
In my experi nice, our bodies can sometimes take a while to sort themselves our after weight loss (or gain). Somehow we always lose from, or gain on to the parts we least want to. In my case, limbs and lady bumps on the loss, where any gain would be at my waistline or central torso.
My weight has been stable now,for almost 6'years, but one day (I could identify when, in hindsight) I was dressing and caught my image in the mirror. I knew my weight was stable, but i also knew my size 8s were still getting looser around the middle, but I hadn't to that point noticed I have a little waist, and much less up and down than I originally was. That shape has stayed here.
I'm now in UK size 6 bottoms and 6/8 tops, and thankfully now stable there too.
My suggestion would be not to be too harsh on your waistline, it might just still be catching up.
