To the person that posted they are ready to just give up go back to old eating habits. I feel like you do a lot but what helps me some in trying to eat right is the fact I have a dear friend that is slowly dying because of her diabetes. I don't want to die but then like you say I don't make enough money to buy everything for the recipes on the site. Diabetes is costly! I also have highs every morning even if I hardly eat anything at night. I am on insulin, Byeta ,Lantus, and metformin. I can't lose any weight either. Help us figure this out. Yes I have seen to three dietitions and they all say something different. Enough to make you pull your hair out. Frustrated. Carol

If your working hard and not seeing any weightloss, I recommend getting your Thyroid levels checked (especially for T3 antibodies). Your blood work shows up as normal T3 levels, BUT your body can't use it, so your actually hypothyroid.

Also so women over 40 get your estrogen & progesterone levels checked. If these hormones are out of wack you can't loose weight.

Diagnosed this year, probably should have been years ago. Have lost over 50 lbs. Now I just want to stop losing. I have gone from a 16 to a size 4. Still trying to figure out what to eat and why am I just so doggone tired all the time.

Trigycerides finally came down with medication, Blood Pressure came down with weight loss. A1C was originally 6.5 and is now 5.6.

Medication keeps me craving anything to eat and then I still trying to figure it all out. If I would just feel whole and good, I would be happy.
