[QUOTE="Pipp, post: 673949, member: 100904"] [USER=128605]@Janice2209[/USER] I am so sorry for your loss of your stepson, Dan. How awful for you, and no wonder your weight loss was derailed. I am not sure how forum members can help you, as I don't know what sort of suggestions you are looking for. You have told us what it is you don't want. So I am loathe to give advice. I can identify with some of your emotions around food. I too know all about nutrition, and I have previously had weight loss derailed by tragic circumstances. However, you have asked about my weight loss, so briefly; I weighed 144kg 4 years ago. I followed Newcastle diet method, and within days my BG became non-diabetic levels and have remained so for over 3 years. My weight dropped to 92kg,. I have since gained 15kg , following immobility due to 2 major operations, but recently have started to lose weight again. Currently I weigh 102 kg. i am also disabled, not able to walk very far, following road accident 22 years ago. I have wheelchair which I hate, but I exercise in water at least 5 hours a week. My decision to finally lose the weight came from reading the Newcastle research papers, and the chance to reverse diabetes. The alternative was bariatric surgery. I have had enough surgery to last several lifetimes, and have allergic reactions to many anaesthetic agents, so the threat of more surgery was the catalyst that worked for me. I hope you can find something that works for you too, but I hope you will forgive me for mentioning that you appear to have grief of the loss of Dan to deal with too. [/QUOTE]
