Hi I'm new to the forum, I'm type 2 and haven't really done much to control my diabetes apart from the medication until May after visiting the DR during covid and learnt how I'm at risk. On 26/05/20 weighed myself the scales said 12st 12lbs I'm on 4ft 10 so I'm obese, 27/05/20 started healthy eating. I weigh myself every thursday weight as of 13/8/20 10st 13lbs. I'm trying to learn how to control and manage my diabetes. So on a learning journey.
Hi Poppyseeds, I like to think of myself as an ambitious 5'0 and as nobody ever bothers to measure my height I can get away with it. I was around same weight as you at 80 kilos when I was first diagnosed about a year and a half ago . I am currently 56kilos. I was 55kilos around Christmas time and seemed to reach a plateau which was ok by me as I am not particularly small boned. Then there was lockdown and I put on 2 kilos. I am now 56 kilos so have lost a kilo in the last couple of weeks, hoping to continue the downward trend. Good luck to you and your journey. .Hi I'm new to the forum, I'm type 2 and haven't really done much to control my diabetes apart from the medication until May after visiting the DR during covid and learnt how I'm at risk.
