New to fatsecret and HFLC
Hi, Everyone,
I'm 44 and was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes back in February. I was on Metformin, and then Invokana. After seeing a weight loss doctor and going on a HFLC/ketogenic diet, I got off my meds after two days! I'm incredibly excited about that.
I've lost about 5 pounds in 6 days. My goal right now is to lose 80 pounds.
Going to the initial weight loss appointment, the doctor met with patients individually, but then gave us a group talk. She gave us a copy of
WHY WE GET FAT & WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT IT
and it has REALLY changed the way I think. This is a cheap book and quick read; I highly recommend it (I already about a $6 copy off Abebooks.com for a friend's mom).

Started LCHF diet
I've just started a LCHF plan, too, and I've dropped about 5 pounds in 6 days. I have headaches and I'm incredibly tired, but only after TWO days of giving up carbs, I stopped my diabetes meds!

Lightheadedness with Induction?
I recently read a suggestion that worked well for me: add 1/4 t of salt to a glass of water and drink! It helped me feel better in about 15 minutes.
