I am 350 pounds and i'm 5'2.?!


Question: I have type 2 diabetes and the Metphormin I am on has taken my hunger away. I am trying very hard to loose weight--i've also stopped eating meat as of April 4. I just want to know if I have a chance in hell of losing the weight or am I just kidding myself.

Yes, I know you have a chance! The key is to remember that you can make a difference in your weight, believe in that ('cause its true), and every time you slip up and do something you regret (like eat a Big Mac?), don't let it derail you and your goals. Instead get back up, dust yourself off, love yourself anyway, and make an effort to learn something from it (maybe you can pick up on warning signs that you're about to slip, or learn new techniques to improve). I can't relate directly to the diabetes, but I know someone with severe diabetes (he just had a kidney transplant last year) who is also working on losing weight, and I myself suffer from compulsive overeating. I am slowly doing better by trying to implement what I said above, and also try to take more walks, even if they are short. Your weight loss may not be rapid, but with persistent effort and belief in yourself, even slow steady weight loss adds up like crazy over months/years. Best wishes!
