Message: <blockquote data-quote="donnellysdogs" data-source="post: 1242709" data-attributes="member: 17713">I wanted to actually state too many carbs too! Can you give us an idea of what you eat? My hubby is 5'11 and think his nice weight for him is 12st 7lb with a nice 30-32" waist. First hubby was a painful thin 26" waist. Like you I lost weight (female) and sunk to about 71/2 stone. I know now just how thin I must have been. I'm on average 81/2st now and still only thin and wanting to put weight on! Do have a good look at what your BMI is. It's again only for an "average" person but there is a wide margin of what weights can be for age/height/male/female etc.It is normal to lose weight pre diagnosis. I'm 30+ years on now and just realising how painfully I'll and thin I must have looked when originally diagnosed.Please can you give us an idea of how many carbs you are eating on a normal day?Whether you know about adjusting your doses?We are genuinely trying to help but as others have said, the NHS Eatwell plate is not the best guidance to healthy eating.Please come back and have a chat.</blockquote>
