Is that you Diana? What's with the name change?
Blimey... too much pain... was the pain in your muscles different then? Is that why you called the doctor? How do you get it? Is it from diabetes, or hereditary? Or do you injure yourself and get left with residual pain? Have you ever tried a TENS machine? I read about them not long ago.. I wonder how effective they would be against that sort of pain... Good to know you have a doctor who listens though... small, bright spot...Thanks. I should be used to it as I have fibromylagia but I was at end of tether xx
Hi Pavlosdog
I am constipated but I think I expect it to happen as I am only having so little to eat I don't feel the need to go to the loo everyday. To be honest I could go upto 4 days at times.
Any eye drops you could suggest or someone who is going through this might suggest.
I might have to talk to my doc about met coz I never ever had these problems before and all of them started as soon as I started taking met.
I do try to eat as many as I can but then again what I love is what I cant eat and that is not potatoes as never liked them too much but carrots I love and I cant eat I mean in limits ok but not as much as I want. I am having mushrooms everyday, I will try and increase the veggies more, Unfortunately due to it being so cold I have stopped salad which used to be a bowl full but might have to restart it again.

Maybe 1800 calories is too much? Have you checked on-line to see what your personal requirements are? My Fitness Pal will tell you. You did say you were eating a massive amount of flaxseed a day - lots of calories and fat in that.
Also, you are on insulin? That doesn't help so I believe.
That reminds me, those Aktipatch on tv sound like they work on same principle as TENS. Must go online request my free trial one, esp way my shoulder has been....Blimey... too much pain... was the pain in your muscles different then? Is that why you called the doctor? How do you get it?

Hadn't thought of meds affecting weight loss until @Bluetit1802 mentioned it, what a pain....Hi @Bluetit1802 and @Sable_Jan My calorie intake has reduced since losing a bit of weight and was calculated on myfitnesspal, it should be a bit more than 1800 tbh but I try to stick to that. I am on insulin, I was hoping it wouldn't interfere with my weight loss too much, drat! I think I have about two level tbsps flax a day. I wondered if I was eating too much cream actually; I might cut it down and see if that makes any difference, and reduce the flax intake a bit.

This is what I have got from fitness pal I just put what I had today, but in this I added one wholemeal roti for dinner which was 30g carbs which I might or might not have so in all it was about 27g carbs for the day.
I dont think this is too little or is it?
It is a nice thing to have I guess
I am hoping I have not missed anything in my meal all day.
I would may be add 200 calories and 10 more carbs to it for a + - just in case I eat extra but more or less it is this
Hi BtAre you still trying to follow a very low calorie diet? 970 calories is starvation level! My Fitness Pal should have told you that. It does if I don't hit enough calories. Why are you tracking sugar? Sugar is included in the carb amount. Fibre would be better.
Hi Bt
I just opened an account now and did this first time so will get a day or two to get used to it
I wouldnt be surprised if i do eat that many calories in a day as I really do not snack or eat any other time apart from 3 meal times and I have been like that since beginning
But definitely I was eating more at that time but thrice in a day, I dont like snacking a lot.
I just went with the defaults I just entered my height weight and thats it, I called myself sedentary, although I walk about 2 miles a day I still said that.
After being on so low car and low calories I dont know how i managed to gain 10 kilos
Although I would be honest initially I was eating bread i think two slices a day but I stopped that more than two months ago as when I mentioned my diet here someone recommended me to reduce bread so I stopped it completely.
