Diabetic with weight loss struggles

Hi, had a similar problem, unable to lose weight or control diabetes, now lost 38 lbs, insulin has now been reduced and training for my first triathlon later this year, all at the age of 48. Good diet, low carb but not to low and exercise, swimming, bike and walking. From taking my health seriously since Christmas I now swim 5km per week, cycle 30 km and walk about 7km. One thing that has helped a lot is replacing paste with things like butternut spaghetti or cauliflower rice. But the biggest thing is a positive mind and the support of family, friends and work colleagues.
