Good morning Pauline251957 and welcome I see you were here several months ago and I hope this time you'll take advantage of all the forum has to offer.

With type 2 diabetes, it's not just about losing weight, it's about changing what you eat. I'm going to give you a few posts to read so do take your time, take it all in and come back to us if there's anything you want to ask.

You'll get further information and support from diabetes.co.uk

Here's what the forum can offer you healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

... and this is a reminder of how to find your way around healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

I'll repeat, there is great support and encouragement here but you need to be here to get it so why not treat yourself to 15 mins each day (that's not much, is it?) to come here, read what people are posting about, join in, encourage others and it will give you a great boost

Hello and welcome Pauline 😊. Well done on taking that first step. If you are maintaining your weight you are almost there, a couple of small changes may be all it takes. Read all the information BridgeGirl has given you carefully, especially about eating less carbohydrates and more fats, but please ask if you have any questions

Best wishes

Indigo 😊
