[QUOTE="kevinfitzgerald, post: 799488, member: 88583"] Welcome Romeo, I'm 47 years old, 5 ft 7 inches and 10 stone. Have been Type 1 since 1981. I lost a stone in weight in a year by just cutting down on snacks, drinking less coffee and tea with milk and cutting down on puddings! I still had a fry up on a Sunday and a couple of takeaways a month. You know what your doing isn't good as you've said it yourself. There is no quick fix to losing weight, we need to do it over time and we need to eat 3 meals a day. What's the point of being your ideal weight if in doing so you damage your eyes, kidneys, heart and nerves. Your also putting yourself at risk of hyper and hypoglycaemia. Sounds like a loss of routine as you stated that you were well controlled for a year and a half (if my maths is correct) with good blood sugars. I guess you had a routine of sorts then in order to achieve this. I would suggest that you get back into routine as you were doing when you were controlled and cut out small things that will make a difference over time. Talk to your diabetes team Romeo and get back on track! All the best. Juliet....... Sorry I mean Kev [/QUOTE]
