Sorry you are feeling fed up Killick9

Did the Doctor give any indication of why your iron levels are too high? Did he say you were doing something wrong?

With regards to your diet, it doesn’t look like very much food, are you following the 12 Week plan? How many calories are you aiming for? If you need more support or advice why not,join today’s Daily Diary (in Events on the Home page) healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

Hi I am but I've been told by my hospital that I have a fatty liver and told to cut out dairy product and red meat so I eat salads and chicken turkey and fish and fruit

It’s good your GP is on hand to advise you 😊. We are not medically trained so can’t advise you regarding Fatty Liver, could you maybe get to see a dietician?

You're doing well Lynne, even though the results about the iron can be dismaying.

You've lost a good amount of weight and if that's all your doctors wanted you to do then you're on the right track.

From what you say you're eating, you also sound like you're on the right track to reduce the amount of iron but as Anna has pointed out, you need to carry on working with your GP.

Don't be disheartened, you've made good progress.
