Message: <blockquote data-quote="neithskye" data-source="post: 1864897" data-attributes="member: 484290">Hi. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes on July 6th. I started eating low carb, drink nothing but water, and started swimming every second day (hadn't been active at all; can't do weight-bearing (like walking) due to arthritis in one foot.)I'm eating things like eggs, cheese, chicken breasts, tuna, etc. I don't eat big meals and don't eat frequently as I find I'm often full.It's been seven weeks and my BS has normalized (from 16 mmol to 6-8). But I haven't lost a single pound.I hear how when people start this they lose a ton of weight. Me, nothing. And I have about 40 pounds to lose.Before diagnosis I ate order-out pizza, 2-3 Cokes a day. Does anyone have any idea why I haven't lost any weight?Thanks!</blockquote>
