Diabetes & Obesity

After losing 150 pounds rapidly in 9 months. . I have developed liver issues and diabetes. I wish i had this app before i went on my super strict low carb / high protein diet.

I am happy that I am no longet a XXXXL
Unfortunately. . I fell short on the proper nutrition & my body is hurting from my ignorance.

I'm herein hopes that someone reads this and takes their health goal SLOW AND EASY rathet than RAPID & RECKLESS

huggs.. and may your day be a full of love & healthy choices

    I have lost 90 lbs over three years. Some days are tougher because of thyroid surgery but I haven't put more than 7lbs back on at one time.

    I hope you recover soon!

    It would be interesting to know what you were eating and how many calories you were taking on average.
