I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes on July 6th. Immediately started a low carb diet, began swimming every second day, only drink water, etc. Only eat one meal a day plus snacks because I'm full all the time.
I'm doing something right because my blood pressure has dropped from "high" to "optimal" and my blood glucose has dropped from the mid-teens to 5-6 mmol.
I've lost . . . five pounds in almost three months.
I see people say they lost 30 pounds in that time. People say I've gained muscle from swimming but a 5'4" woman should not be weighing 189 pounds.
I'm so frustrated. What am I doing wrong?
