To: A little back story I have hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue and trouble losing weight
Me: We always hurt the ones we love. I have a thyroid problem and my doctor prescribed tablets for that, fatigue is probably caused by your weight issues – it is so with my “female” companion, she was 165kg but she is losing weight – her doctor prescribed Saxenda liraglutide (rys) 6mg/ml which comes in pre-filled pens each containing 3 ml liraglutide (rys) (copied off her medication box) and so far she has lost around 30kg. They are a weekly injection, from memory the needle is finer than a hair and injected into the stomach, though I don’t know the details and she injects herself, with no pain whatsoever and she is terrified of needles, so more power to her on that one.
for more information 0800 733 737 (New Zealand) and 1800 668 626 (Australia) or write to Novo Nordisk Pharmaceuticals Pty Ltd, 58 Richard Pearse Drive, Airport Oaks, Mangere, New Zealand – 5 pens to a package.
I am a Diabetic and my Diabetes doctor recommended I eat green vegetables only with cooked meat, from the Deli, like Roast Beef, Ham, Chicken, Turkey, etc and I have dropped down to 101kg at last weigh in, a few days ago – with Coffee or Tea, or water or water mixed with sugar free cordial, which makes the water taste bearable, I like Orange, but there are other flavors too.
An alternative diet is with: White bread, white crackers, white pasta or white rice. Eggs, grilled fish, chicken or turkey (no skin). Plain Yoghurt, honey. rice bubbles, corn flakes, special K serial with hi/low milk – high in calcium, low in fat.
Drinks allowed: water or clear soups, lemonade, gatorade, hydralyte, cordial orange or yellow, apple juice (clear, no pulp), yellow or orange jelly, black tea or coffee.
It is hard, but once into the swing of it, it becomes easier and my blood sugar readings are down around 6.3 where 8.0 is the cut off point and more aggressive means are employed to control my type 2 diabetes – I have been a diabetic for over 20 years – no insulin injections for me
I am totally lazy and I don’t exercise much, I have 2 adopted greyhounds and they run around outside and I never take them for a walk and I have lost weight by diet only – no smokes, alcohol and bad things like that – it is how it is and any of these diets will ensure you should live to a ripe old age and recover your health big time.
I have your back, I am here for you, whenever you need me.
You have trouble getting onto a diet, let me know – I suggest Goal Setting to do that.
Best Wishes and Good Luck
