good morning all. Not trivialising the title but wanted to check in. Ok, since having T2 confirmed 10 days ago, I decided on beating myself up to lose weight as fast as I can. This involves a mixture of near starvation and checking foods and BS with my widget. It seems I only have to look at a carb and my BS heads for the heavens. Dreary. I do love a good roastie and mash, rice and curry.
Truth be told I am a complete slug when it comes to “exercise”. I am fine with meaningful effort but brain turns to mush if you mention gym. Maybe I have to bit the bullet? Interestingly, I have found that walking to do something needed, really helps weight loss but it is no pleasure walking round smoggy east London. People tell me I must eat 3 meals plus snacks but if I want to lose weight- target no pills - this is the only way I can do it. Any thoughts? I see my GP on Thursday, hoping for a meaningful discussion.
