| That is awsome Lloyd. Congratulations on your weight loss. I hope you keep up the good work!
Being women, I think it is naturally harder for us to lose weight. Type one diabetes requires a larger amount of basal and bolus insulin to control blood sugar and there is no natural insulin being produced.
I have tried limiting carbs, exercise and limiting fat with a negligable result. I am not a lot over weight, but enough that it makes me uncomfortable. I was always on the thinner side until I started taking insulin.
I wish I could lose weight, but I am about to give up. I am going to talk to my doctor again about hypothyroidism. It runs in my family with both my Mother and my sister taking medication. My tests have always been borderline normal. We will see.
I guess I would rather carry a few extra pounds than have long term complications. |
