I have been type 1 for 26 years and overweight for all but 3 of these years.
The lowest my weight has been is 10st and now I am at my heaviest and it is drivig me crazy.
Before anyone starts with the 'rip Maria apart', I want advice, NOT a load of people criticising me.
On a usual day, I eat
Breakfast- porridge
Lunch- eggs/bacon
Supper- chicken/veg
I do not snack and all test results (thyroid etc) always come back as 'normal'
I walk loads and go swimming 3 or 4 times a week.
I was a VERY badly controlled diabetic for a few years and this is the time my weight was at its lowest.
My sugars are all between 4-6 usually now but no matter what I do, the weight creeps on.
I am not going to say my weight now but it is enough to make me feel depressed, I have no social life as I dont want people to see me looking like a beached whale.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated before I end up driving myself crazy.
