I had posted that I was slim and had no weight to lose and I had already lost weight even more since going low carb and on 3 meals a day. So it seems though I’m thin outside fat inside. I’m really shocked and don’t know what to do to be honest as my doctor is not much help. I weigh around 7 stone 5 pounds and I’m 4ft 11 and that’s a lower end of normal weight. I’ve never been one to exercise and when I lost weight before I was diagnosed I think I lost a lot of muscle! And I tried one of those online calculators of waist to hip ratio and it makes me obese! And the worse thing is I tried one of those scales in boots that shows your body fat and it put me at 45% fat! Obese! I really just want to give up! I can’t afford a personal trainer so how on the earth can I build muscle as I read that people with high body fat have very low muscle mass I’m really scared that there’s nothing I can do to rectify this! I can’t seem to get my waist size down!! I’m 34 inch hips and 29.5 waist which puts me at obese I really don’t understand and I don’t have the energy to exercise to build muscle so what should I do? Please help!</p></blockquote><p></p>
