Thread: Need to lose 8-9st with a dodgy leg

Not been on for a few days, hope you are still plodding on mate.

Hi mate, I'm still at it. Some workies spliced our broadband cable so haven't had the net for a few days until it was mended.

Nightmare mate being without the net, think I would feel like I have lost a limb lol

Yeah, you don't realise how much you really use it until you can't use it.

Hope you are well mate?

How are things going?

I'm good cheers guys. Had a wee stay in hospital and didn't get around to logging in when I got out. My weight keeps going up since I've been on these new tablets for my diabetes, so I'm going to have to try and really reign things in. I'm now tipping the scales at 317.5 lbs which is heavier than when I started, despite sticking to a fairly clean diet.

Today is the start date of my new plan too. It's just an 8 week job, but I can tell already that's it's going to be tough to get past even the first few weeks.

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles. Was the hospital trip related to your diabetes? Have you been given any nutritional advice to control it.

Which type of diabetes is it? Type 2?

I really admire you for getting back on the wagon.

It's type 2. I was just in for a routine operation on my arm, but like everything it seems to be complicated by the diabetes. Healing time also goes through the roof unfortunately.

Thank you very much. I only wish I could stop falling off it!!

Good luck with your restart, just take it a day at a time. youll get there in the end

Thanks, I hope so!

The first few days of your new plan are always tough. I have struggled too. But I hear it gets a lot easier once you're used to it!

Hopefully it will. I've been seriously craving a nice tuna steak for the last 2 days. Good luck with your new plan!

Today hasn't been too bad. Wish I could do some quality exercise to get the full benefit from this though.
