Hi all. Been looking for a forum today as i feel i need a bit of support on my road to a new life.
I was diagnosed with typeII diabetes in Jan 2009. As with anything shocking and new i went hell for leather to lose weight as i was about 350lbs. I actually lost 44 kgs by July that year. Then i sort of lost interest and now my weight has rocketed back up to 353lbs.
Because of my weight i get very hot and sweat alot( i know, not nice) so that stops me going out socializing. My closest friends know how i feel and don't make fun and just ignore when i have to mop my brow all the time. I would love to go swimming but don't because i am too embarrassed.
My housemate has been into nutrition for a long time and has devised a meal plan for me. It seems to be a lot of food but it is the right food and little and often.
Sorry if i have waffled on but this is the first time i have put pen to paper(as it were) and told people how i feel.
Thanks for reading.
