Hey folks, so a quick run down of the past 10 weeks.
Diagnosed 10 weeks ago on the 26th Jan as type 2, found this forum and quickly gained control of my bloods. At diagnosis I was 220 lbs with a BMI of 33.8 - I'm now 182lbs with a BMI 28,4, weight loss was rapid upon starting the LCHF.
My Hba1c at diagnosis was 101mmol/l - Have my next HbA1c on the 27th this month. my monthly meter average is now 5.5mmol.l, so I'm hoping this will be a big
improvement.
Which brings me to the reason I'm posting this thread, my weight loss has reached it's plateau and it's time to start becoming active and fit. I brought a treadmill even though everyone said "just go out and run" had it a week but I'm not doing it right as my legs are in pain, so much so I didn't walk / run tonight.
I have lived a very lazy sedentary lifestyle but want to change this, very motivated at the moment but with soooooo much information online, it's hard to know what exactly to do.
So I'm hoping you folks can give me some good tips, links and a push in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.
