As I have said I have been diagnosed with diabetes early this year. I have lossed about 12lb in weight, from not eating sweets cakes and crisps and a major change in my diet, so the doctor is pleased.

Saying that the cancer team are a bit concerned, but I have assured them it's intended weight loss but looked at with pity, as if I don't no what I'm on about. xx

  • Thanks little-fi, I do sneak the odd biscuit , then feel guilty  lol xx

  • Well done on losing the weight if it was intended! Oncologists don't like weight loss, but it's good as far as the diabetic doctors are concerned!

  • Hi Sarah, my calendar & Xmas cards arrived yesterday. The calendar is so nice, we’ll done to all you ladies! X

  • Haha!  I can relate to this because from my past experience I've noted that unintended (+ significant) weight loss is a "sign" of sub-optimal events!  

  • Thanks so much for your support, my choir are awesome and many of them are much braver than me!

  • Good for you Moi, I have been doing the same, I've cut out biscuits, sweets and anything else you eat between meals. I started before going on holiday at the start of October, lost 5.4kg. Came back after two week holiday and had put on 2kg. That's how easily I put on weight. I stayed off the biscuits etc but did have some ice creams. Since then I haven't weighed myself as if I haven't lost much, I will be disappointed and if I've lost more than I think, I might want to celebrate! I will wait until end of November. 
    I'm hoping it will help with the pain in my hip and leg.

    I would have thought the cancer team would be pleased for you too as long as you don't overdo it! How long are you going to keep it up for?

    I have put on quite a bit since I became immobile, so I need to loose quite a lot!

    Love Annette x
