¿Have you been told you need to loose weight?

¿Have you been told how much you need to loose?

¿Have you been told you need to loose weight quickly?

¿Have you been told that you can get medical support to enable you to loose weight quickly and safely?

You are fortunate to be diagnosed before you get diabetes, and this is motivation to change your diet, and prevent you getting diabetes.

Yes I know it’s the wake up call I needed. My weight has been an issue for some time but I lose a bit then become complacent so I end up not watching what I eat and back at square one. I am going to be stronger this time.

Have you previously lost weight by counting calories, or by trying to adopt a lifetime healthy-eating lifestyle?

[Indigaal in reply to S11m]

I’ve previously list weight by counting calories

Hi, Indigaal

Counting calories is not the only way.

My father was 24 Stone when he was diagnosed with diabetes, and he bet his consultant his fee the he could lose seven stone in a year, and he won ...without counting calories.
