Losing Pregnancy Weight & Reversing Type II Diabetes

So I'm Jasmine and I guess this is my journal about losing pregnacy weight and controlling t2 diabetes.

Height: 5'3"
Starting weight: 140lbs
BMI: 24.8

Goal Weight: 120lbs

Dream Weight 110lbs

[U][B]Intro[/B][/U]:

I had a baby boy 4 months ago. I gained 40lbs during pregnancy & I had gestational diabetes.

After having my baby I ate.....junk. I had a blood test 3 months later and discovered I had t2 diabetes.

Before getting pregnant I was a vegetarian for 3 years. I think that's what lead me to high blood sugar coz I was getting a v low fat, next to no protein, high carb diet.

I have been Primal for 1 month. I decided to start this journal because I haven't lost any weight & I feel really crappy overall. I really need advice and support.

So, thanks for reading....

Hi. Just checking in, and will read your journal.

So far I just am on a pill, but I need to get the diabetes under control. I sure don't want to do insulin. Good luck to you!

B: Bacon, omelet, c.cheese

No Lunch

D: Almond Tilapia, avocado, greens, red wine

S: 2 pieces dark choc, cheese, tea with cream

1 hr brisk walk

I didn't have lunch coz I was out and about today & didn't have time.

I didn't really want to eat any snacks, but I couldn't stop thinking about food! All I wanted was the dark choc! I think I should eat lunch tomorrow and try not to eat the snacks. I had mustard with my fish (not too primal I don't think) Here's a pic of brekkie & dinner:

Whoa massive pics!

@PP yeh insulin was a pain to inject. I actually haven't been to the dr coz I don't want to be on insulin.

I've actually been eating pretty primal for a month & my symptoms have already decreased: less peeing, less thirst, less skin dryness (still pretty tired though)

Glad that my weight has come down BUT I've lost and gained the same 2 lbs for a month so won't be ecstatic until down to 137lbs or my jeans fit better.
