[QUOTE="daveosman, post: 192320, member: 32198"] I was diagnosed type 2 Jan this year with blood levels at 12.9 cholesterol at 7.5 and weight at 17 stone. Today I weighed 12 stone 3 blood levels at between 5 and 6 most days and cholesterol levels about 3.5. The advice I'm looking for is how much weight should I lose? I would be quite happy around 12stone 7 but I seem to be still dropping the lbs. I am on 3 metaformin a day. Could they be the reason for the constant weight loss?By the way I have been on a low carb diet since Jan and also I do daily exercise. In late march I went away for a week weighing 13stone 7 and when I came back I had actually gone up to 14 stone. A week after I got home I was back to 13stone 7. My target weight was when diagnosed was 12 stone 7 which I have now gone past.My problem is knowing what to eat to stay around the 12 stone 7 mark. I dont mind going up a bit because I know I have the discipline and will power to lose it again,what I dont want is to keep losing weight every week now that I am below my target weight. Any advice would be greatly recieved. Oh and by the way I do know how lucky I have been to lose the weight and a lost of people would gladly swap with me. All I can say is I have sacrificed and been totally dedicated to losing the weight to stay as healthy as I can firstly for my wife and two grown up sons and secondly and sometimes more importantly I have two you grandchildren who I adore and love very much and so my family have been my driving force and thats the best advice I can give anyone trying to lose weight. Oh and one more thing LOW CARB DIETS. Hope I havent gone on too much. :D [/QUOTE]
