Weight Loss - Amazing Results
Re: Weight Loss - Amazing Results -- Posted by Marie Maly on 12-27-03 06:09
Hi Michael.
Congratulations on the weight loss, good labs, and improved control.
Unfortunately that doesn't mean you are no longer diabetic.
You have made an excellent commitment to yourself, and are now enjoying the
results.
Renew that commitment each day, and you will continue to enjoy the benefits
of being in good control.
Diabetes is for life.
Marie, Caretaker

I haven't read all the posts in this thread, so I hope I'm not
being redundant.
I remember hearing high blood sugar can actually CAUSE weight
loss. I lost weight while getting frail on the way to being
diagnosed T2. The point is I wasn't really _trying_ to lose
weight. I actually thought drinking a LOT of water was
helping me lose weight. ;-)
Little did I know...
I went to the doctor to find out if there was some serious
reason why I was losing weight (like the C word) and found out
it was due to diabetes -- a serious reason, but not so
imminently threatening.
When I started to exercise and eat better (without medication
of any kind) my blood sugar went shooting down and I started
gaining weight, mostly muscle I suppose.
Since then, I slipped off the bandwagon and went back to the
doctor again.
Now I'm on Actos, Lisinopril, and Lipitor -- and again I've
started gaining weight.
Gaining weight is a side effect I really don't like, as I've
been fighting that battle my whole life. And this time I can
tell it's not just muscle, as my pants are beginning to fit
tighter again.
I actually think I felt better not taking any medications, but
my doctor says "Don't even THINK of stopping your meds!"
