We just switched from glipizide to Glyburde cause it gave me the shits...He also said that I need to lose a good amount of wieght, I am 5'9" at about 233lbs. Does anyone have any suggestions on a way that can help me lose some wieght and control my sugar. I work out regularing (mostly cardio) to help me lose wieght and control my sugar levels? thanks

Answer 1

I have diabetes type 2 and have lost 15 pounds with my diet plan. First of all do not eat carbs or sugar. Whole grain bread is good, but only the 1 or 2 gram of carbs per slice. I buy Chompies cinnamon raisin bread, one gram of carb, no sugar, 5 grams of fiber and 50 calories per slice.

Have a sandwich with this bread and use 0 carb meat, egg salad, tuna. The bread fills you up (trust me) and I feel that the cinnamon helps me lose weight. You can also eat salad with 0 carb dressing. Make sure that anything that you buy and use does not have corn syrup or sucralose in it. The key is to not eat many carbs, maybe only 8 a day to get started.

You can also eat broccoli, tufu, bok choy, celery in a soup. Use chicken broth for the base. After many many years I finally figured out a plan to help me lose weight.

Do NOT buy the whold grain bread that has carbs in it as I tried it and I only gained from the carbs. I learned the hard way. You can also buy 0-gram carb bread online at www.vivalowcarb.com

Drink only diet pop. Remember low-carb is the way to go. Cut way back on meat and this will also help. In a way, follow the Atkins Diet for low-carb, but also try it my way. You can e-mail me if you have any questions. I lost weight without exercise because I have a bad back - so I know my plan works. Good luck.

Answer 2

Slim-Fast will aid you lose a couple of kilos every week. I used it to lose somewhat of weight earlier than a social gathering, and misplaced eleven kilos in 10 days. Losing greater than 3 kilos every week can also be very bad. If you're extensively chubby, the primary 15 kilos will probably be regularly water weight and are available off rapid. If you're no longer chubby, however simply desire to slender down rapid, drink tons of inexperienced tea and significantly restrict your salt consumption quickly - simplest till the social gathering.

Answer 3

Work out, healthy eating, no sweets, no fat, no fried food, no pizza, no fast food, a lot of lean meat and only whole-grain carbs. Lots of green vegetables and water. Good luck.
