In the first couple of months after being diagnosed I lost 20 pounds. But for the past few months I have been stuck. I have read Beefy's guide to weight loss. He says if you get stuck, shake things up by eating more, then cutting back down. I tried that and it didn't work for me. While reading through old posts, I came across this one:
I am 67, and have a dislocated zyphoid so when it comes to exercise I can't bring my hands/arms above my shoulders or lift anything heavy, like weights, or I end up in extreme pain, but I do walk on the treadmill 20 min. per day.
After reading Patdart's post, I am curious to know what food made up the 20 carbs per day, whether or not you measured your veggies. And any other help from anyone would be appreciated.
Maybe I am eating too many carbs, although I try to keep it between 20 and 30, I haven't been real exact with my counts because almost all of my carbs come from veggies low on the glycemic index like cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli, I haven't been measuring them.I lost weight eating around 20 total per day and am now slowly adding them in while watching my meter. The scale is irrelevant for me at this stage. I'm at my goal weight and now eating about 30-40
