[QUOTE="flossie1999, post: 152832, member: 21157"] I was diagnosed with type 2 in 2002 and although my blood sugar is fairly well controlled, my weight seems impossible to shift and is causing more and more problems as I also have osteoarthritis (one hip and knee replaced, the other side waiting to be done). It means that there isn't much scope for exercise. I managed to lose some weight by following a strict Atkins diet but because I found it difficult to maintain, I had some results concentrating on GI. However, this was before my mobility became as limited as it is now. My carb intake is reasonable, portion control is perhaps a bit wonky. To jump start another attempt at weightloss I have started Slimfast two weekis ago with moderate results and no change in blood sugar readings. Can somebody tell me please if this is suitable for diabetics or if I might ultimately do more harm than good? PS. Thanks for the post on Elmlie - I have been using it for a long time assuming it was better than cream (which I actually prefer). Flossie 1999 [/QUOTE]
