I'm still 95kgs.
I'm a great believer in once my body knows a lower weight its easier to reach.
I haven't a new weight loss goal. It was less than 100kg so I'm happy.
Of course less over-weight equals less insulin circulating, less appetite and less medication.
Just have a little way to go to stopping all insulin but very very reluctant to substitute insulin for meds which add weight and circulates more insulin which is unmeasurable and proven to fluctuate more than insulin injections.
Going from a severe insulin resistant person to what I am today is huge for me but I won't be done until I see excellent hba1c and another C-peptide result before I reduce insulin further. Higher metformin is putting too much pressure on my bowel which needs less trauma not more.
I'm having a weekend off from medical decision making. Even I have my limits.
